Take the 2-minute tour ×  I'm looking for a method to quickly
create a Plain Text Table in the MS Office suite (e.g. a line
would be replaced with the dash format "------" ? Creating a
standard HTML supported table and then applying a conversion
would suffice.  Thanks, F.  share|improve this question

Sevilla Aug 30 '11 at 11:24 I know that emacs has some
interesting plug-ins that support plain text table generation so
I'm hoping that there is a simpler "windows" based conversion
tool/method available. –  Finbar Leahy Aug 30 '11 at 11:35  1
Answer 1  Create an Excel document with the data. That allows
you to export the current sheet as HTML (not pretty).  An
alternative is to copy the data into the clipboard (Ctrl+C) and
use a small program which reads the clipboard as "text/html".
