Hi VICSonians,

I've a table in MSWord, which I want to export to a CSV file.  CSV (Comma
Separated Value) files are just flat text files delimited by commas.  Now,
if I can get it in to MS Excel, I can save it out as a CSV so that'll do.

Does anyone know of a way of getting my table from MSWord in to MSExcel?

If not that, does anyone know of a way of converting the MSWord table in to
a CSV?

I don't fancy manually copying and pasting each cell... The table is
massive!

It's ironic really... I've been given an 83 page functional spec, and all I
need is this one table.  Someone actually went to the bother of pulling the
contents of a table from the Mainframe and converting it in to MSWord as
part of the spec.  Now I want to take it back out of Word and make it in to
flat text... which is the format it would've come from the Mainframe in
originally.

Am I rambling? Yes.  The Sun is having some weird effects on me.  It's
making me want to drink beer on Wednesdays, and forget work.

Can anyone help me?

Tony
