API To Retrieve A Webpage Needing Username And Password
Jan 30, 2008
I've been playing around with the API functions (specifically, InternetOpenURL) to retrieve the contents of an HTTP webpage and store the information within a text file, using Excel VBA. It works great for any "normal" webpage not requiring a "Username" and "Password" login. I can't find any examples on how this is done for a webpage requiring such a login? I've heard you can do this via sending the appropriate cookie to the server, but I can't find any documentation on the web? Does anyone have any idea on how this functionality is achieved?

I am having a really difficult time with this code. I am trying to fill in some fields on an webpage in an effort to eventually retrieve some data. I have read lots of posts on the topic and somehow I'm still confused. My code crashes on this line and gives an Automation error, Unspecified Error message: With appIE.document.forms(0). No matter what I try, I can't get past this line. I have also tried: With appIE.document.all
Sub PropInfo()
Dim appIE As SHDocVw.InternetExplorer
Set appIE = CreateObject("INTERNETEXPLORER.APPLICATION")
appIE.Visible = True
appIE.navigate "http://gisims2.miamidade.gov/MyHome/proptext.asp"
Do While appIE.Busy: DoEvents: Loop
Do While appIE.readyState <> complete: DoEvents: Loop
With appIE.document.all
.Item("cmd").Value = "FINDADDR"
.Item("cmdTemp").Value = "FINDADDR"
.Item("searchtool").Value = "ADDR" 'Search by' dropdown
.Item("stnum").Value = "2417" 'house #' field
.Item("stdir").Value = ""
.Item("stname").Value = "ponce de leon" 'street name' field
.Item("sttype").Value = "BLVD" 'street type' field
.submit
End With
End Sub

I have below piece of code which I'm not sure how to finish up. What I'm trying to do is have 'Username' and 'password' entered before logging into the workbook. It does not have to be 'UserForm" if it is possible, but it would be useful if we use Ucase...
I'm just not sure how this code works with
"Sub sUserLogon(strStandardID As String, strPassword As String)"
stated in this way..
VB:
Sub sUserLogon(strStandardID As String, strPassword As String)
Dim strUserName As String
Dim StrMessage As String
Application.DisplayAlertsAlerts = False
StrMessage = "User Logged In"

I am using the below code to access a website with IE.
My next step (of many) is to Login to this website.
The login screen requires that I enter:

How can I tell IE to enter my user name and Password?

I'm trying to create a program that will automatically log in to a website that requires a username & password. I am able to enter the username and password in the correct text boxes, but I can not get the form to submit to approve the login. It refreshes and removes the password.
I have attached my code. The web url is inside it.
Sub IE_login()
Dim ie As InternetExplorer
Dim C
Dim ULogin As Boolean, ieForm
Dim MyPass As String, MyLogin As String
Set ie = New InternetExplorer
ie.Visible = True
ie.Navigate "https://applications.dacgroup.com/login.aspx"

I am trying to log on to an FTP site and post a file through Excel VB. I have managed to open a new Explorer window and direct it to the URL, but I don't know what to do next. After navigation to the URL a Pop-Up Window comes asking for UserName and Password and I don't know how to supply it and click submit.
After I have completed that I will need to give the path of the file, click post, and close the window when it is done.
Here is what I got so far:
The commented out stuff is not working. I got it off a similar application that someone else in my company wrote that accomplishes a similar task.
Sub SConnect()
Dim IE As InternetExplorer
Dim IEURL As String
Dim IEDoc As HTMLDocument
Set IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
Set IE = New InternetExplorer
IE.Visible = True
IEURL = "https://something.com" .................

I'd like to automatically enter the username and password from a spreadsheet.
Currently, I've got a spreadsheet that has a login id in one cell and a password in an adjacent cell.
I click a button on the spreadsheet to call a hyperlink to a webpage while excell is using the copy function to copy the username to the clipboard.
Once the webpage loads, I just paste the username into the username box.
Then I go back to excel, copy the password, then back to the webpage and pastes the password.
This works good for me, but I'd like to make it a little bit better.
What I'd like to be able to do, if I had the username and password in one cell seperated by a symbol (say, "=" since usually don't use that one) then when I hyperlink to the webpage, I hit paste.
>> this time, when I hit paste, (maybe using some kind of a api code or something), excel pastes into the first box, *automatically* hits the [TAB] key, and paste the password.

I am trying to import data from a website protected by ID and password. I do have the login ID and Password to login to the website.
I am importing data from the website to my excel sheet to track some shipping informations. I do have the 'Import to Excel' option but I would rather open the
spreadsheet and click Refresh Data and have all the Data imported with click of a button.
I have already tried to use Import External Data but it is not working.

I trying to create a paperless petty cash system. I have my sheet all setup and calculating how I want. When a user makes an entry they Enter their name in column "W".
I am trying to overcome the problem of accountability. I need to achieve a cell calls for Username and Password and if correct the persons name is entered into cell then Row is locked to prevent figures being altered etc. But also if user made mistake they need to unlock it somehow someway
Sure this achievable from snippets of info I seen online but its way beyond my abilities. I realise a determined user can circumvent this if they wanted to.

I have a spreadsheet (don't we all) that is currently password protected - you double click the file and need to input a password before it will open.
I have some code that will protect a workbook from changes and only unlock for specific usernames, and i wonder if there is some code that will do the following:
-User opens spreadsheet
-VBA looks at the username trying to open the sheet, for this example the username is Paul.Smith
-Paul.Smith is not one of the people who should have regular access to this sheet - so the VBA requests a password from him prior to opening the sheet.
My username opens the same sheet (galvin.paddy), VBA see's that my name is one of the 'Authorised Users', removes the password and opens the sheet for me ready for use.

Trying to find a set of code that I can use to open a website that's predetermined, and enter in the users name and password automatically. And if possible, open a new email via the website, addressed to a person, and ready to browse for the file to attach.
The code I have is below.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
'
storenumber = [$c$3]
If [$iv$2] = True Then
If [$iv$3] 0 Then
MsgBox ("Can't send with No Adjustments Checked & Items to Adjust, Please clear one")

Using Excel2010 in Windows7. I have a UserForm
1: TextBox for Input Username (txtUsernameIn)
2: TextBox for Input Password (txtPasswordIn)
3) Submit Button (cmdSubmit1)
I have a Worksheet
ColA: Username
ColB: Password
And this entire Range A:B, I have named "UserRegister"
I have code, attached to the cmdSubmit1 button on my UserForm. The purpose is to allow access to a veryhidden Worksheet "ADMIN".
The code 'works' if I enter in both the correct UserName and Password (ie: the code completes & Admin sheet opens up).
The code 'works' if I enter in the correct UserName and the wrong password (ie: code completes it's run, my msg pops up to say there is wrong input, unloads the form & sheet ADMIN stays veryhidden).
However, if I enter the wrong username (with either right or wrong password) the code breaks and I get a debug error. I know my code is obviously wrong/missing something etc - but I can't work it out! The line of code highlighted on the break, is between the *** below
VB:
Private Sub cmdSubmit1_Click()
Dim Username As String
Username = txtUserNameIn.Text
Dim password As String
password = txtPasswordIn.Text
[Code] ......

I have Excel Sheet that open with user name and password.

If open by any user - it opens only users sheet.
Problem is once file is saved by any users, all hidden files get unhidden and Admin Sheet is open.
Requirement: if User1 saves file other sheets should not get unhidden.

I've named the password to my protected workbook using this code:
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="password", RefersTo:=pWord1
I then want to be able to close down Excel, switch off the computer, open all back up again and retrieve the password. I've tried the code:
pWord1 = Evaluate(ActiveWorkbook.Names("password").RefersTo)
But I get this:
Run-time error '1004': Application-defined or object-defined error
How to retrieve the password from the named variable after closing?
This is to protect and unprotect the workbook whenever I open and close it to timestamp a spreadsheet in it. I don't want the daily user to be able to see the time stamped spreadsheet and so need to keep it hidden and the spreadsheet protected over the course of many days when I'm not round.

I have a thousand names on a column, and I have a several worksheet tabs as locations, such as CA, AZ, TX, and NY.
All names goes to main worksheet, show like this
apitchford 10 100 123
bkishpaugh 9 211 123
blee 14 234 111
cbonny 21 125 412
I need to pull a specific name, example, name = blee, move that name with all data on that row into TX.
I will need to set as automatically, becuase the names add and delete on the main worksheet, and will auto update those tab worksheets. (make sense?)
I have tried INDEX and MATCH, but they keep putting one data in, not all data.

i need to create an IF and an And formula for the debit columns and credit columns of an income statement and a balance sheet on a 10 column worksheet. The formula for each column will be slightly different but will be the same for every row in the respective column. the formulas must check to see if the account number is associated with an asset, liability, or owner's equity. this will determine if it is a credit or debit balance. my basic goal is to enter all values in unadjusted trial balance and adjustments, while all the other columns fill in automatically.

I am trying to use an IF Condition for multiple options and have forgotten how to make it work. Here is my basic formula:
=IF((B20="CHASE"),SUM(C20:I20))
I need to have several other options in B20 to "CHASE", like AMEX, DISC, BOA and CASH, so I need the B20 result to reflect which of those conditions exist in order to find the sum of C20:I20. I cannot seem to get any configuration to work.

i have a graph that i've linked to let's say cells A1:C150
however, my range could sometimes needs to be shrunken to A1:A100 or A1:A40 etc. (the number of rows that are "active" is determined by cell K27)
i'd like for my graph to automatically adjust depending on the number of rows that are filled within the range above. can this be done with formulas and graph manipulations?
i've put in a formula currently that makes the value of the cells that would return 0 into "" but that doesn't seem to do the trick.

I have a table with subtotals that I need to find the largest value for the subtotal results and then return the cell contents for the corresponding row.
I have attempted to use the hlookup function, but keep getting a #ref error (probably because I am just not that familiar with the entire formula requirements).
I attempted to nest in the 'largest' function to the lookup function, but have so far been stymied....

I have a sheet that is password protected. I have this code attached to a command button. It will unlock the worksheet, autofilter it, print it, unfilter it, and password protect the sheet again. However it is protecting it without a password. I need to have it protected with the password so that someone will not be able to just go to tools to unprotect the sheet.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
ActiveSheet.Unprotect "rainforest"
Columns("O:O").Select

I'm OK on the change event thing, but just dont know the function to find the the current users name.
