I did something like this but couldnt get it right

m.o1 = createobject("internetexplorer.application")
m.o1.navigate2(filename)
do while m.o1.readystate # 4
enddo
?m.o1.document.body.childnodes[1].innertext

That gives all the data in the html but not of the table alone
also extracting data from the return is not easy because it has no delimiters...

any better way?
