Yes, the process of copying and pasting lines from a text file to Excel can be automated using programming languages such as Python, VBA or PowerShell. This can be done by writing a script that reads the text file and extracts the lines that need to be copied to Excel. The script can then use the Excel application's API to open the desired Excel file and paste the data into the desired cells. Alternatively, third-party tools such as AutoHotkey or Macro Express can be used to automate the copy and paste process.
