Formating Text file or output

[usblackhawk]

i have a file with data in that looks something like this:

 7  213.105.172.13  64.139 ms  51.771 ms  51.922 ms
 8  62.253.184.2  52.075 ms  52.214 ms  55.384 ms
 9  193.159.225.237  49.361 ms  52.573 ms  52.688 ms
10  217.239.40.173  64.264 ms  64.204 ms  64.795 ms
11  217.6.48.246  64.797 ms  64.983 ms  65.299 ms
12  194.126.123.58  77.388 ms  77.950 ms  82.695 ms
13  194.126.123.53  114.337 ms  126.156 ms  122.287 ms
14  194.126.123.46  123.318 ms  144.008 ms  141.843 ms
15  195.250.170.38  142.046 ms  130.792 ms  128.414 ms

How do i go about making sure that they align up correctly column by column? so that it is easier to read on the eye..
or if possible, would it be able to export to a openoffice spreadsheet with all data correctly in each shell....

thanks.

Looks like a job for awk. Maybe you could use a printf statement with a fixed field width to print out the fields in columns.
