    Copy table from web site

    My problem is need some data (included branch address & office address) from web site (which is table)
    when I paste into excel, the office address has been splited into 3 rows or more. and the branch address is fitted into 1 cell with wrap text.

    Actually I need to do the mail merge, how can I transpose the office address into 3 column instead of 3 row (maybe the address is more than 3 rows)

    And also for the branch address, how can I split it into few column instead of 1 cell

    thanks

    dont copy paste
    in excel click
    data-get externaldata-new webquery
    in the web query window type or paste the url
    if you are having excel 2002 and above
    All the tables will have arrow indicators.
    click arrow of the particular table you want
    the arrow will turn into tick and the table will be bordered.
    clcik import and choose the cell from which you want it import and click ok

    if you are having excel 2000
    you have to indicate the number of the table which can be guessed by
    looking at the soruce or by some trial and error.
