does anyone know what the best approach would be for taking a few hundred .pdf scans and converting them to excel documents? i already checked with kinko's and brownies. they both basically told me to jump in a lake.

Find some rediculously good OCR (optical character recognition) software or something. But if you're taking the tables i the PDFs and wanting them in correctly formatted excel docs, that aint gonna happen. I don't think there is any software that smart.
I don't even think that the full version of Acrobat would help any.
