Table from IE as an editable table - 2007

D

DZ

Is there a way to copy a table from the web and move it to ON 2007 as a table
proper. I can certainly copy a table and bring it over as an image of the
table, but I would like to be able to manipulate it WITHIN ON (rather than
through a third program). Thanks for all of the help.

This would not mean "copy", this would be "printing" into ON with the
"Send to OneNote" printer.

This works fine, if you *COPY* it.

1.) Mark the table an the page in IE;
2.) Paste it into ON:
(a) Use the browser's "Send to OneNote" icon (the wording is
misunderstandable in so far)
OR
(b) copy the marked area to the Clipboard (either with "Edit | Copy"
or Ctrl+C), opem the the traget page in ON and Paste into ON ("Edit |
Insert" or Ctrl+V or Shift+Ins)

The result will be fully editable in ON.

When I said copy, I was referring to highlighting the table in IE,
ctrl+C, then ctrl+v within ON (never went close to the print
driver). As mentioned, it comes over as a formatted table, but is
not editable.

Is it just one special table or an in general issue?
I can move the entire table, but cannot change
rows,columns, add or remove content. I have also tried the
SendToOneNote option in IE. What else could be happening?

I have not yet come across this.
Normally tables are editable.
Could be that on the website it's just an *mage* not a table?
