YES. Most MPD data tables can be copy/pasted directly into Microsoft Excel for local manipulation and analysis. This works with MSIE and Firefox browsers, and maybe others: 1. With the desired MPD table showing in your browser, select the table by dragging downward over it with the mouse. Be sure to begin dragging the mouse above the top/beginning of the table in your selection. Then on the top menu bar choose Edit/Copy (or hold right mouse button down and select Copy). 2. In Excel (or MS Word) select Edit/Paste. The table data should appear. If it doesn’t come out right the first time, try once or twice more using different starting points for the mouse drag operation.
