[tdf-discuss] Data import from a PLC via Net

Hi,

today I found
<http://www.sbc-support.ch/faq/item/item.detail.php?it_index=101574>
describing a solution how to get data from a Programmable Logic 
Controller to EXCEL.

This would be a very interesting feature for my business, can anyone 
estimate whether that also will be possible with LibO?

I did some first tests with a far away PLC connected via VPN, my results 
 When I only insert "http://ipnumber/";
OOo 1.1.4 shows the Title of the start.htm page on the
PLC in the cell (if I select HTML_All"

"LibreOffice 3.3.1  - WIN7  Home Premium (64bit) English UI [OOO330m19 
(build 8 / tag 3.3.1.2)]" shows nothing. After some time I will get 
selection of language, then available tables will be filled with 
"HTML_all" and "HTML_tables". It does not matter what I select, no 
contents will appear. I see the link in 'Edit > Hyperlink'

Same bad result with OOo 3.4-dev.

So my questions are:
1. do we have a bug here making connection or data transfer impossible?
2. if connection will work, how are my chances to get data from PLC?

Best regards

Rainer Bielefeld
