Not one of my areas of expertise/experience I'm afraid.

I know that excel is available as this is an in-house u/t for us to accept the customer's data, to do with bus ticket m/c data where that data is not stored electronically. In the past the data was sent as XLS or CSV - now they've suddenly changed it to HTML. I suspect that once converted to XLS I can reuse the code I've already written for such.
