How can we copy into a table???

Knut Olsen-Solberg

I have long lists with student names, both in Excel and in Word tables,
but my web-site is maintained with FrontPage. How can I copy these lists
into a table in FrontPage without all names coming into the first cell?
Please help, or I will have to move the names one by one (hundreds of
them)...

Regards Knut

You can copy the Excel cells into a blank part of your FP
page. This will faithfully keep each name in its own cell.
Then you can built the rest of the table you want around
it.

With the file open in Excel, select Save As and select html or web page.

No, sorry, the names are to be put into an existing table in FrontPage.
(But as mentioned, all names end up in the same cell in this table.)

Thanks Knut

Sorry, but the table is already existing as part of a quite complicated
webpage. The table is possibly easier to rebuild than copying the names
one by one, so I will consider your suggestion.
But is there no way to get the copied names directly into a cell of
their own?

Thanks Knut

Follow Steve's instructions, then import the page into FP, then open the page and copy the rows,
then insert into the page with the current table. The rows/cells need to be the same.

Yes, though the cells now looses their colour and surrounding lines,
this seems to be the best solution.

Thanks Knut
