Text Edit table > InDesign Table?

I have a table in Text Edit right now, actually got the data in table form from the web; copy and pasted.

I'd like to have more control over the table and contents than Text Edit gives but can't seem to "pour" the data into a table in InDesign..is there a way to do this?

I built my table with as many columns and rows as the source..dunno what the trick is.

thank you for any clues!
