So long as Excel can open the file, the functionality to change the format of the opened file is built in.

To convert an .html file, open it using Excel (File - Open) and then save it as a .xlsx file from Excel (File - Save as).

To do it using VBA, the code would look like this:

Sub Open_HTML_Save_XLSX() Workbooks.Open Filename:="C:\Temp\Example.html" ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _ "C:\Temp\Example.xlsx", FileFormat:= _ xlOpenXMLWorkbook End Sub

We copy/paste html pages from our ERP to Excel using "paste special.. as html/unicode" and it works quite well with tables.

Change the content type to ms-excel in the html and browser shall open the html in the Excel as xls. If you want control over the transformation of HTML to excel use POI libraries to do so.
