It's quite a difficult thing to do due to formatting isssues. I tried once with limited success. If i recall correctly, under "Data" their is a option to "import external data", select "web query" and input (copy/paste) website url.
It's not perfect but operable.Comment -
I once did it from Web Site > Access > Excel, but never direct from Web Site > Excel.Comment -
