Opening a file using the Web Page Query filter
- In the target document, open the Navigator.
- At the bottom of the Navigator, select the source document. (In the example below, the source is named actives.) The Navigator now shows the range names or the tables contained in the source document (the example contains range names; other documents have a list of tables). Click on the + next to Range names to display the list.
- In the Navigator, select the Insert as Link drag mode, as shown below.
