Here are the steps I used to make this table:
Copied the blob into Word.
Looked for patterns of repetition to make sense of the information.
Saw the dollar signs, did a search and replace for those from “$” to “^t$”
Put a hard return after each incidence of the phrase “illion” by searching for it and replacing with “illion ^p”
Manually entered tab symbols after each name and fund type
Created the table by converting it in the Table/Convert dialog box.
Did quite a bit of drag and drop due to the way the data was formatted. I did miss one source, the very first line was credited to Bloomberg which is down on the line for Fortis. I fixed that after posting, of course.
Sorted the table on the first field.
Saved as HTML.
Opened the file in a browser.
Used View/Source to see the HTML formatting, copied that and pasted it into the posting box. Preview seemed ok, so posted it here.
Found one discrepancy, of course. :P
Very interesting ....thanks much
I will try that on 1/4 of the blob
Is there such thing as a source in Word documents?
Like there is HTML source for simple web pages
