I have excel sheets that are structure more like a form...rather than column headers and rows of data... what is the best practice to approach importing data from the form?

eg. a3 - Package: (a header); b3 - 1 (data field)
a4 - # of days worked (header); b4: 5 (data)
a5 - Total Boring this week (header); a5: 10,960 (data)

good new is the 'form' is consistent..so the data items are always in the same cell....
