Same here, I have no problems. Are you doing this from work? Could it be a
company network setting? Btw, there is no need to highlight anything on the
webpage itself,
just put the URL where it should be, do any changes using the dropdowns (on
the webpage) and import,
that should give you an option where to put the imported data, then it will
take a while transferring it
depending on the speed of your connection

Peo, what was your settings in the web query options box? Unde
formatting I
have none selected. Under Import Setting for preformatted <PRE blocks I
have import <PRE blocks into columns and treat consecutive delimiters as
one. Under Other import settings nothing is checked. Thanks for the
help.

Works fine for me, although one have to do some editing since it imports
some trash as well (I would import it, then select the table itself from
the
import and copy and paste into a new sheet, then import the next 50 and
so
on) but I got the first 50 players with their stats. I did as follows,
dataget external datanew web query, then I put in the web address,
select
only the tables,
and no formatting. This is excel 2000, I have xp and 2003 at home but I
am
sure I can do it using them as well.
I did it with the first 100 players, first imported 50, copied and
pasted,
then imported next 50, copied and pasted below the
first 50

If I try and use a web query with the following site
http://www.sportsline.com/mlb/stats/...n/yearly/MLB/P
I get a message that says the web query returned no data. I click on
the
arrow right by player and it highlights all the players names and
their
stats. Anyone know why it doesn't import the data into excel? Is
there
too
much data? Thanks
