Html page generator question

I have a list of phrases in MS Excel and want to automatically create
individual html pages based on each phrase.

The html page should have the title tag, page name and first word as
the corresponding keyword from Excel.

So, the page would look like this:

<html>
<head>
<title>Keyword Phrase</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>

<body>
Keyword Phrase 
</body>
</html>

and would be called: keyword_phrase.htm

And I want to automatically do this from the list of phrases in Excel or a txt file.

My search strategy was to use the phrase "excel to html" with
google.com. This resulted in the following url -->
://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q="excel+to+html"
with many quality results, a few of which I've posted above.

I hope this helps you in your needs, please don't hesitate to request
clarification if necessary.

Best regards,

Hi

This option looks best:

Excel-to-HTML converter (macro) 
http://www.web100.com/sib/excel-to-html.html 

But it asks you to save the file in the macro location, but I dont
know where this is? I am running xp proffesional and Excel 2002.

Thanks

Lee

Hello again, glad you found one of my answers helpful.

According to http://www.web100.com/sib/convert.html, the place to put
the unzipped convert.xlm file is in your folder c:\...\excel\library\

Note: Your folder might not necessarily be named 'excel', I am
referring to the folder where you excel program is stored, whatever
it's name may be.

If you follow this link, you will find detailed instructions on how to
install this file and use it:  http://www.web100.com/sib/convert.html

Good luck!
