When I want to get some data from an HTML file, in order to process it, 
especially with Calc, the only way I know of doing it is by following the 
steps, from OOo:

- File|Open  the .html file
- Select the table or stuff you want ("Edit|Select All" can be useful)
- Edit|Copy
- File|New Spreadsheet
- Edit|Paste Special, HTML format

The layout is "reasonably" similar to the HTML's. But you can get data from 
it! For example, get and process columns of data!

Hope this helps!
José
