Extracting text from word and displaying in Excel

D

Drew

Hi,

I'm looking for a method of extracting a Pattern from a word doc and
displaying in an excel spreadsheet. I would like to implement this as a macro
to automate the process.
I was thinking of extracting the data from word using a Perl script, saving
to a txt file and importing into excel.

Is this the optimum way?
Can you run a Perl script within MVB?

Cheers
Drew

Sorry, I do not understand what you mean by "extracting a Pattern from a
word doc".

What is a pattern in this case?
