Default Extracting metatags from a web page and inserting them in a worksheet.

Is it possible towrite a web query that will extract the metatags from a web
page and inert them in the active worksheet? How?

The metatag field of a web page is in the header and not in a table.

Suppose the metatag specification in the web page is:

<meta http-equiv="keywords" content="Southeast,full-day,half-day,minority
enrollment,free or reduced-price lunch,school lunch,region,early
childhood,poverty level,preK"

The problem is how can the list of keyword be extracted and inserted in a
worksheet?

The actual URL for this metatag is:
http://nces.ed.gov/programs/coe/2004...ndicator02.asp

Thank you.
