I have an excel sheet that has a lot of APN (parcel numbers) on it. I would like to run that through the assessors page [URL] to get the address and owners name. It seems like a very simple thing to do, but... How would I make it run each parcel through the assessors page to get the name and address information. Is there a tool I can install into Excel to make this easier?

This website below has a "div", called "div.sidemeta" wihick contains the information I want to grab. [URL]
I have tried a different alternative:
Sub Test()
Dim IE As Object
Set IE = CreateObject("internetexplorer.application")
IE.Navigate "http://www.webiste.com"
[Code]....
The data I get under "IEdoc.body.innerhtml" does not show that particular DIV. I have tried using getElementById,getNamedItem and getElementByName without any luck.
How can I using VBA do HTML scraping? A site which I have to use to update some data on a spreadsheet does not offer any web services. I have to copy data from the spreadsheet one cell at a time, paste into the search field and look at the results and decide what kind of modification is needed for that piece of data.
If VBA can do HTML scraping here is what I thought I could do. For each of the data in the cell, I need to go to a search field on a website, manually enter the values and hit search. Then the browser generates a url like "http://www.mysite.com/search?hl=en&q=SNX018923" and returns the result as an HTML page. How can I use vba so that I can automate this process of generating the url and load the returned html text into a variable. Then I can use the script to search for a pattern of text and do something to the active cell from where the data was taken. *nix has a curl command. What is the equivalent of curl in VBA? How do I use it to get the result I am trying to acheive?
I'm trying to put an excel sheet on to a website. The website allows HTML snippets and I know how to save the excel sheet as a webpage but I don't know how to transfer the webpage I've created on to the website. It asks me to post the snippet but I don't know what it wants? What is the snippet?

My Excel Spreadsheet has columns named "Hospital Name | Overview | Address | Phone | Fax | Contact Person 1 | Contact Person 1 Title | Contact Person 2 | Contact Person 2 Title | Contact Person 3 | Contact Person 3 Title"
There is the list of hospitals starting from "Abbott Northwestern Hospital". I have two things in my mind to extract the information. If you click on the first hospital name "Abbott Northwestern Hospital". Below is an example text which I would like to transfer it automatically in columns given above;
This text should go in column named "Overview":
Abbott Northwestern Hospital bring twins into the Twin Cities -- along with triplets, quadruplets............

This text should go in column named "Contact Person 2 Title": VP Operations
This text should go in column named "Contact Person 3": Sandy Schmitt

I have been trying for some time to be able to download a file from what I believe to be a FTP site. There are three user input fields which I have been able to identify there names. After these fields are complete there is a button to push which I have also identified it's name.
Once the process of pushing this button is done, an unspecified amount of time must occur for data to be gathered and the option of Open, Save, or Canel appear in a Download window. I would then need to Save and Overwrite an existing file.
No Login or Password is required.
I have been able to automate the open of I.E. and input to the three select fields as well as the necessary button push.
However, I am unable to identify how to automatically save the file into a specified location, with overwrite privileges enabled. Below is my progress

Can VBA be used to extract a table from a website and output it on an excel sheet?
Basically we have to log in to a website and type data to our spreadsheet which is a bit tedious from the table on the website.
I'm guessing this can be done in some way but us having to enter username/password on website first to get to page we want will probably cause an issue would it?
I have a tedious task of copy/paste from our website. have a look at below sample data. I have around 1500 rows of data like this.
Sheet1
A
B
[Code]....
Column A has input data which i need to copy and paste in a web form. Column B will have results scrapped form webpage[ URL]. This webpage will need login details
If a code can be written which take value form column A of spreadsheet and paste in webpage like shown in above image and hit search button. Next webpage will be loaded with number of results like shown in below. Take the number of results and paste in column B of spreadsheet.

I am trying to extract data from a website:
[URL] .....
I looked at the source code of the website and realized that if you notice (above) that the variables listed in the link (i.e year, month, day) are exactly what i need to change in order to get the data for a specific date. how can I accomplish this using VBA. so say I have in on an excel sheet year in column A, month in column B, and days in column C (time interval is constant so we don't have to worry about stime and etime). and i run the macro and it loops through each row taking year,month,day for all rows and saving the data as .csv or xls files?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm attempting to familiarize myself with pulling data from an online database into spreadsheets for manipulation. I'm relatively familiar now with pulling tables using webquery, etc. but my next feat is accessing data from sites which require some "input" before retrieving the desired data set.
Currently, I have a site which contains information and prompts for the "year" of information in a dropdown box. I've attempted to do this as indicated below, and was able to "select" a year, however the page doesn't load the data like it would if I were to manually click on it.

Dim ieApp As InternetExplorerDim ieDoc As ObjectSet ieApp = New InternetExplorer
ieApp.Visible = True

I'm not sure if the error is due to some issue with my code - or if "Label1" isn't the correct label for the dropdown / combobox on the site. I didn't post the site source on this page - but the URL indicate in this post is the one I'm interested in.
