In a similar vein to browser tools to copy html there are tools all over 
the place and in tiddlywiki for table to csv, csv to tiddlywiki or 
spreadsheets.

One trick I use is to paste into a spreadsheet, use the appropriate text to 
columns then export as a csv. 

Other tools such as CSVed on windows at least, allow for sophisticated and 
simple reworking of csv files.

Tony
