In the example shown, the table I have chosen is marked by the green checkbox and highlighted with a gray box surrounding the table. I could have chosen any one of the individual stock prices within the box. But choosing the entire box gives all info within the box. This is much simpler to understand than a text list of 30+/- tables you would get with OOo. I wanted to show how OOo showed the same page but it would not load this page for some reason. Sorry first attachment didn't work I will try again. Attachment is named Excel Import data. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

[sc-issues] [Issue 74557] Importing external data
To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=74557 Issue #|74557 Summary|Importing external data Component|Spreadsheet Version|OOo 2.1 Platform|Other URL| OS/Version|Windows XP Status|UNCONFIRMED Status whiteboard| Keywords| Resolution| Issue type|FEATURE Priority|P3 Subcomponent|open-import Assigned to|spreadsheet Reported by|xandros1 --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Feb 14 20:34:09 + 2007 --- When linking to external data online, a graphical user interface (i.e. web browser) is needed for obtaining information from the web. I would like to download stock qoutes from the internet, but when I link to the web page from calc I get a list of about 50 tables to choose from. This is not user friendly. Look at how Excel handles importing data from the internet. They give you a web browser from within Excel that will highlight all the tables that have data that is available for downloading. This way you can see which table you want instead of having to guess the text number of it. Try this example in Excel: Go to: Data> Import external data> new web query: Here you will see a browser opened up that allows you to search the internet for the info you want to import. You can see yellow arrows at the corners of each graph or table allowing you to select the data. Ooo needs this kind of an import feature for external data. The lines of text used in OOo link to external data are simply not adequate. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
