Hi Preamble ...skip if in a hurry -------------------------------------------- *I've been on the m$ office treadmill for 15 + years *I've always been scared of Linux and thought it was all command line *Recently stumbled on Linux and libre office ...so I am completely new to libre office *Used it for a few days ... Truly it's a great piece of software and dispelled most of my doubts on Linux, using Linux, libre office etc etc Question / request reading ------------------------------------------ *However some specific doubts remain on libre office *I've been using M$ XL's add on for grabbing web data , called smf add in *When activated, once could easily grab specific pages, specific cells of web pages directly into xl ( without opening a web browser) *This is a great time saver *The only and only / excellent group for using smf add in can be found at http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/smf_addin/ *Some basic write up on using smf add in can be found here http://seekingalpha.com/instablog/326478-derek-a-barrett/1414481-automating-alpha-getting-started-with-stock-market-functions-smf-add-in-for-excel Now, my question is , is there a similar add in for libre office, when invoked , could help the user get specific cells ( not the whole web page ) from a URL into libre xl sheets ? Of course the user supplies the URL Or is there some app in Linux that can do the same ? How do people grab specific web data ( not entire pages ) but specific data for web pages into libre calc ? Request to Moderators ; if I am posting on the wrong area or group please most this post accordingly Thanks in advance Regards -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/How-to-grab-web-data-into-libre-office-calc-Or-Addons-to-grab-specific-web-data-into-libre-calc-tp4051120.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+help@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
