Help needed with copying info from a table

Hello. Hope someone can help. I need to figure out how to import the info from a web page into a spreadsheet.

 

The web page I need to copy the info from is: http://comedyatlas.co.uk/comedians-first-name-a.html

 

I need to copy the table info from there and paste it into openoffice calc in the same format ie: rows and columns that it appears on the webpage

 

is there any way of doing this?

 

thanks in advance

If you don't have access to the database then you could try copying the page and pasted into Excel.

 

Export HMTL to Excel

 

I personally never tried the above method.

 

 

thanks. I'll give it a go. Haven't got excel installed on my laptop but there's usually similarities between the way excel and openoffice function.

 

Shall report back

 

thanks again
