How to convert a table in PDF to Excel

Greetings all,

 

I am working on a project involving several dozen PDF files containing some data in tables. I would like to be able to convert those PDF tables to Excel so that I can work with the data in Excel spreadsheets.

 

I have Windows Vista and Adobe Reader 8.1 and I have a DELL Inspiron 9400.

 

The simpler the solution, the better - as I am not as computer literate as I should be.

 

Thanks.

 

Bob
