I've run an optimization for a particular EA, when the optimization completes i've gone to "copy all" the results to paste into Excel (which i've done many times successfully with other EA's) it copies the results but in one long row. This is happening across different machines and different installs of MT4. Has anyone else experienced this and if so do you know of a "fix"?
- Different result from optimization and single backtest
- Optimization results not running single test
- Get in touch with developers using Service Desk!
Paste special?

In Excel, if it does not separate columns automatically due to differences in Regional Settings, then you must use the "Text to Columns" for separating the columns.
You also must use "Find & Replace" to convert decimal point if you have different regional settings (like using the "," for decimal).
Be extra careful of dates, because in MetaTrader dates are also using "." for separators, so you should first do a Column-wise "Find & Replace" on those columns first, before you do a general "Find & Replace" for decimal point on the entire sheet.
