 * Hi,
 * Could you please let me know if we can extract data from custom Database table
   using tablePress, If yes then how?

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
    Also sorry for the late answer.
   I was on vacation and didn’t have a chance to reply earlier.
 * No, sorry, TablePress can not pull or read data from a database. It uses its 
   own custom format. You will have to import the data manually, e.g. from a CSV
   export of the database table.
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Thanks Tobias, I like your Plugin, Its really great. Thanks for your response.
   
   If you add feature to extract data from mySQL, that could be one more value addition.
   All the best.

 * Hi,
 * no problem, you are very welcome! Sorry that I couldn’t offer a direct solution.
   
   Adding something like this to the plugin is probably not going to happen, as 
   this would be a feature that only a small number of people would use. Also, it’s
   hard to solve this properly for all the different kinds of tables.
 * Best wishes,
    Tobias
