Re certain numbers from a table:

I simply link the destination cell in my output table:

e.g. the query table might fill range c1:g12 and the item I want is in d5. I
want this to appear in my output table A1:b5 in cell b3. In cell B3 I write
'= D5'

Presto!

Thank You R.VENKATARAMAN.

Follow up question. For "New Web Query" command, how do I know the number
or name of the table on the website? I did some trial and error and finally
found the number of the desired table, like 64, clearly this is time
consuming because the number could be in the dozens or even hundreds.

Another question. What if I only want certain values from the table and not
the entire table with text and all? How do I link up Excel to only the
values that I want?

Thanks Again

I want to automatically import wesbite data in Excel cells, to perform
calculations. For example, I could have a portfolio in Excel that does
complex calculations. The portfolio needs to update stock prices every day
(and other numerical information). Don't want to manually cut, format and
paste every day for dozens of stocks and other values. Want to link up the
stock price in Yahoo (or from Fidelity Investments) to the cell
automatically, such that every day I can open Excel and ask it to refresh all
the prices at once.

Is this possible? Thanks for your help.
