Dear Jaleel,

We appreciate your reponse, unfortunately your answer was tangently not
helpful in solving the problem. What Bob wanted was a manual explanation of
coping Pdf table and converting into an Excel table without purchasing a
software.

Having said that, there are majority of excel users who are still
hamstringed with the same proble, including myself.

Regards,

Hi,

There are many softwares available in the market for converting PDF to
Excel, Word, Power Point etc. Try to purchase "Able2Extract" or "ABBYY Fine
Reader". Both are working fine.

Greetings all,

I am working on a project involving several dozen PDF files containing some
data in tables. I would like to be able to convert those PDF tables to Excel
so that I can work with the data in Excel spreadsheets.

The PDF files are located on several research websites that all happen to
use PDF.

I have Windows Vista Ultimate and I have a DELL Inspiron 9400. Presently I
am using Adobe Reader 8.1 to read the PDF files.

The simpler the solution, the better - as I am not as computer literate as I
should be.

Thanks.

Bob
