Are there any programs (for pc) that can extract info from web sites and then build a database from that information? I am trying to expedite the process of going to a web site of astronomy groups to get their contact information for my employer (yes, I know this sounds almost like, and may even be, spam). It would be neato if this program is able to define fields such as first and last name, group name, etc.
Thanks in advance crew!
