Help With Reverse Engineering This

**shen923** · 11-29-2011, 08:55 PM

EDIT - Based on the forum guidance by Jeffrey in his posts below, I have created a new thread that has a more accurate thread title for what I am looking for, it is at http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...ml#post2654028

MODS if it is appropriate to do so, please lock this thread

I am looking to get some advice on how to best accomplish what is being done on this website; http://www.syracusesmokers.info/imag...Score.htm.html

I have been tasked to run this site after the current administrator left without giving anyone his methods.

What you are looking at is a Pool League Weekly results for a 13 week season. Obviously here the full 13 weeks are played out.

I am assuming that he was using an Excel spreadsheet offline that was formatted to do all of the computations etc. and was then saved as an html file, in this case sheet002 from what I see in the <head>.

My question is this, (if my assumption is correct), is there an easy way to recreate that Excel spreadsheet from the code available on this page?

If I'm off-base here and there is another method that you can see then please advise.

Thanks For Your Help

Please take a few minutes and read the Forum Rules about cross posts.

Cross-posting is when you post the same question in other forums on the web. You'll find people are disinclined to respond to cross-posts because they may be wasting their time solving a problem that has been solved elsewhere.

It is preferred that you not cross-post at all, but if you do, please provide a link to the cross-post

Ooops my bad, sorry about that, Yes this question was also posted over at MrExcel http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/showthr...19#post2946919

I edited that post to remove all of the question because of forum cross post rules.

So with that, I hope I am back in good here and will await for some help hopefully

Regards

First of all, I followed the link, but it doesn't work. I get 404 - Page not found.

I'm not sure I'll be of much help with this one, but maybe somebody else will jump in.

Second, please take a few minutes and read the forum rules about thread titles. You thread title should be as accurate as possilbe to what you wish to achieve and Help is not really one of them. Everybody comes here for help including me

I am just getting off to a good start here huh?

I think then that it will be best to start a new thread with a more accurate Title, with a corrected link (yup that one was bad but fixed now) and then come back over here to edit the OP pointing poeple to the new thread and a quick explanation that the thread title was a bit off. Would that be cool?

That would probably help with getting some more traffic to this thread since the post count is now up to #6.

I guess you could mark this thread as solved, start a new thread, and point to this one with an explanation of starting out on a new foot.

Just remember I am not a moderator to this forum, so maybe a moderator could even lock this thread.
