It's quite easy to use Mathematica directly to format the information the way you request. For example: data = {CountryData["Countries", "Name"], CountryData["Countries", "GDPPerCapita"], CountryData["Countries", "LifeExpectancy"]}; data = Transpose[data]; Grid[data] Note that the page you link to contains a "Mathematica form" button, that indicates how to get some of this information. The graph on that page, with tooltips indicating country name, can be generated as follows: toLabeledPoint[{name_, gdp_, le_}] := Tooltip[ Point[{gdp, le}], name]; Graphics[toLabeledPoint /@ Select[data, NumericQ[#[[2]]] && NumericQ[#[[3]]] &], AspectRatio -> 1, Axes -> True] Mark McClure
