How to convert a list from the web to a good database in Excel
I have a great list of Hospitals from the web with everything written in a
long list like this: Albany Medical College, Union University http://www.amc.edu/academic/ 43 New Scotland Avenue Albany, NY 12208 Tel: +1 518 262 5548, Fax: +1 518 262 5029 Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Yeshiva University http://www.aecom.yu.edu/ 1300 Morris Park Avenue, Bronx, NY 10461 Tel: +1 718 430 2106, Fax: +1 718 430 8825 What's the fastest way to convert this into a database in excel to look something like this: One column for each of these: School, Web address, Address, City, State, zip, Phone, Fax We do this manually and depending how long the list is, it can take forever. |

How to convert a list from the web to a good database in Excel
Hi,
Is the info regarding each hospital in just one cell, or is it in 5 cells (one cell for each line)? Regards - Dave. |
