Any way to create an Excel file from data in Word?
 

For instance, I have some Word documents with long lists of data
formatted as:

----------------------------------------------------
<181
UI - 8468089
TI - Failures in the osseointegration of endosseous implants.

<182
UI - 8429059
TI - Bone ingrowth: an application of the boundary element method to
bone remodeling at the implant interface.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

I'd love to be able to convert this to an Excel database with the UI
number in one cell and the Title in another. Possible?

TIA.

In Word try:

Table ==Convert == "Text to Table".

If you successfully generate a table, you can copy and paste into Excel.

OR

You could copy the data into Excel as-is and then transpose it from rows to
columns. You will probably need a few lines of VBA code to do the latter.
