IE export to microsoft excel

[punteray]

I had accessed Brisnet supertote page to follow the tote board for Aquduct. While I was waiting for things to happen I right clicked on the page and up popped a list of options. One of them was "Export to Microsoft Excel". I selected that option and received an excel file which I opened in excel. It had all of the odds and pool files in cells and they automatically updated. HOW NEAT!:) I have since tried to duplicate this process but to no avail. I have not been able to repeat an excel export????:mad:

ANY IDEAS:confused:

I use that method with Public Handicapper entries to make worksheet, & have found that the closer the cursor is to the right edge of the entries, I don't get the "ex to excel" option. When I move to the right more, it works the way you want. Experiment!

I moved the cursor ALL over the form to no avail. Guess I am not holding my tongue in the right position:lol:

Thanks for the reply! ANYBODY ELSE OUT THERE HAVE A SUGGESTION???:confused:

I just tried it on Bris & got the option - I've heard the the dropdowns can be edited - don't know how, but others here might.

I get the dropdown menu OK but when I select export to excel nothing happens???

I can only suggest "google" or MS support.

Or just pull it into Excel instead of pushing it from IE. Use the web query.

I will have to admit I know nothing about Excel, although I am trying to learn it. I will check out what you say.

Thanks

Here is the link to a post I put up a while back about getting odds into excel. The first tutorial will get one track's odds loaded into a sheet. If you scroll down, there is an added tutorial on how to make it dynamic (so you can change the tracks without having to start over the query).

Good luck and let me know if you have any questions.

I have a copy of "Open Office" which was free to download BUT it will not do the same as Microsoft Excel:mad: so I am biting the bullet and buying "Microsoft Office 7":).

Thanks for the info and I am looking forward to doing as you indicate.
