     Pardon me for asking a simple question. Have you tried selecting 
the entire table, copying it, opening a new spreadsheet, and pasting 
into cell A1? It might work. I am not sure what would happen if some of 
the cells in the HTML table had been split or merged. It might not make 
any difference.
     I have tried this with 3 column 39 row table in an HTML document on 
my web site. All I had to do was to optimize the column widths.
