I tried this. It did not work. I was given no options. No pasting.

I pasted the text into Write and into a text editor (Kate on Linux)
without any problems. I am using LO 3.6.3 on Linux Mint 13
I am now at the point where the data is copied into Write and kate.
How ever I do not have the 2 columns. How can I format this?

When I copy and paste into libreoffice the data in the columns is in
rectangular boxes that I can not do anything with. How can I put
this in
text format?
Thanks, Gary
Hi.
The html uses divs and styles that seem to paste into LO as I would
expect but not as would have been as simple as if the html was in a table.
With a little adjustment of the frames the look is very similar to the
web site.
You can inset a section and define 2 columns then past your text a
section at a time without formatting into these sections. Alternatively
you could insert 2 frames in LO and paste the columns without formatting
into the appropriate frames. You could also insert a table and paste the
information into the cells.
