   adding markup to tables that have none?

[ Lists Home | Date Index | Thread Index ]

This is a tough problem, but it's as old as the use of markup in data files, so I'm sure others have tackled it. When you have a table in which all layout is achieved using spacing (which of course requires the use of a fixed-width font) and you want to add HTML or CALS table markup that identifies row and table entry boundaries, what kinds of tools are out there besides importing to Excel and saving as XML?
 
I know that such tools would only work with simpler tables, because spanned entries, wrapped entries, and other fancy table tricks would cause problems, but I thought that there must be something out there, and I can't find anything. Any suggestions?
 
thanks,
 
Bob
