If you load a tabular table with type auto there is a possibility that it incorrectly sniffed as a csv file. With type csv the columns are split on commas and not tabs so the data appears in one column.

This is especially the case for tab separated  files that do not have row names and therefore the same number of tabs in the header row as the next row.

Manually change the type to tabular which will solve the problem.

One possible solution which add a stricter csv sniff method is in:

Dears,
We observed this issue under galaxy release 15.07.
Tools with a param tag and type="data_column" in their xml file are impossible to set on a workflow "run" mode.
The value of the column stay at "column 1" or void even if your tabular file has more than one column.

The setting of the tool is ok in the "analyze data" mode : you can change the value of the column.

We tested this issue with home made tools but also with Merge Columns (version 1.0.1) tool - "text manipulation" section on our Galaxy instance.
and we detected the issue on the galaxy main instance too...

Any idea ?
Thanks
Marion & Franck
