Can anyone point me in the direction of a website with lists e.g. of countries, colours, animals etc which can be used when creating arrays. I have seen a few country lists in arrays but is there a site which has loads? It would save me, and probably quite a few other people, a lot of typing.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

Your best bet is to simply take each item, one at a time, and google it. Wikipedia is a good source for lists, then you can quickly assemble them into whatever format you like.

For example, if you google 'list of sovereign states', you'll get the country list from Wikipedia. Copy and paste it, then with an excel grid or a little macro action, you can spruce it up to what you want.

Answer 2

About countries list , use this site: ip2nation.com
