When trying to import data from the web using Excel, Excel doesn't seem to like the way most sites have their data organized and I can't select the individual tables I want. The only site I have found that seems to work well is yahoo sports. I was wondering what other people use? Or is it possible to make changes in Excel so that other sites/tables will work better with the import data from web feature? Thanks

If using Excel 2007/2010, try using the Data tab and the web data source

Sometimes it imports the stuff in a decent fashion. Or you can write a script that cleans up the import.

I have also found that Excel's table import is sketchy. ESPN for example has really easy to read data in table format and the HTML uses very standard <table> tags to layout the data, yet Excel refuses to import the main stat table. GRRR!
