vba sourcecode to convert pdf to xls
ro.koehler[ at ]gmx.de 28.09.2006 07:18:05
Hello,

Does anybody know a home page where an example of a vba source code is
listed, which enables to convert a pdf file (with tables) into an xls
file.

I would need some ideas how to do this, in order to write my one little
vba programme.

Thanks in advance

Rudolfo

You would normally use some OCR software to achieve this - the PDF file
can be read by the software and turned into editable text - or Adobe
Acrobat full version (not just the Reader). I'm not sure how you would
do it with VBA.

Hope this helps.

Another crude way is to select text in PDF file and then copy / paste
to notepad and then import them in Excel with proper parsing /
delimeter etc.

But it is very very crude. Sort of quick and dirty solution.
