Jerry:

    If you the web page using SAVE AS to a text file in internet explorer
    to get rid of HTML junk then you can edit the tables with
    a text editor.

getxml() works.

Or read the file in, replace all "</TD><TD>" pairs with ';', then all "<td>" and
"</td>" , then strtok will be happy to parse on the /n and ';'.

If you  have MS Office (97 or higher) just open the saved html file in MS Excel.
It generally gives good results.

You could try http://windowsutilities.com/webtable.html
It's shareware, but if it works, it's probably well worth the $14.95

Or, free, but with a little work, try viewing the webpage with Lynx, (P)rint 
to a file, and you'll get text without the html which could then be filtered 
by a Eu program into a form that you can use.
