I find your question a little confusing on two points.
 * The Decimal for ASCII 129 would be 129?!?
 * Printable entities above 127 are not ASCII characters and belong to
one of the later 8, 16 or 32 bit encoding systems such as UTF-8 or
ISO8859-1. Many early computers (my Vic20 comes to mind) had extended
code sets up to 255 but these were over and above standard ASCII and
the extensions as far as i am aware were never standardised on.

If i was you, i would locate the data you want in Wikipedia and copy and
paste into Calc or Writer. Wikipedia data is always free to use in this
way.
