Here's a ticker I just whipped together... It actually looks better than
I
expected.


Public TickerString As String
Private Const TickerSpeed = 3

Sub StartTicker()
DisplayTicker
TickerString = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
End Sub

Sub StopTicker()
On Error Resume Next
Application.OnTime Now() + TimeValue("00:00:01"), "DisplayTicker", ,
False
Application.StatusBar = False
End Sub

Sub DisplayTicker()
Static i As Long
Dim strTemp As String

If i = 0 Then i = 1
strTemp = Mid(TickerString, i) & Mid(TickerString, 1, i - 1)
i = i + TickerSpeed
If i Len(strTemp) Then i = 1
Application.StatusBar = strTemp
Application.OnTime Now() + TimeValue("00:00:01"), "DisplayTicker"
End Sub

You'll have 4 lists.

1. The webpage list
2. A current copy of the webpage list
3. A copy of the webpage list as it was 15 seconds ago with
timestamp
4. A list of all Agents

Copy list 2 to list 3
Copy list 1 to list 2
For all agents in list 2, write status of "logged in" against agent
in
list
4
For all agents in list 3 minus agents in list 2, write timestamp
against
agent in list 4
Refresh ticker string using list 4 agents where agent not "logged
in"

You'll need another timer type procedure running in the background
which
manipulates the Application.StatusBar text using the ticker string.

Hi,

Both of you are not getting what i am trying to do!

I am extracting the tabular data to a worksheet from a webpage
which
shows
the Agents logged in to our outbound/inbound dailer system. this
webpage
refreshes itself in 15 secs. Ok.

Now, after i extract data on a worksheet, i want to also refresh
the
worksheet every 15 secs in sync with the webpage. Ok.

Now, the extracted data could be sorted and then matched with a
helper
column in the worksheet which would contain the full list of agent
ID's
in
our Dept.

But, if suppose after 15 secs, one of the agent ID is missing from
the
extracted list, the Match would fail and his LAST logged in time
and
ID
name
(when his ID name appeared last time, 15 secs prior to refresh)
should
reflect in the worksheet status bar as a scrolling text or just
show
up
there for some time. The need for scrolling text is bcos if there
are
more
than one agents logged out, their names would reflect one after
the
other
in
the scrolling text.

I know that there would be variables to define & some use of the
Timer
&
TimeOut event.

Something like this in the status bar:
eijazs - 12:55:03 am......zaki - 12:57:04 am ...etc.
This way i can keep a track of whose logged in and who's logged
out,
getting
the agent strength on the floor sitting at one place. No need for
me
to
go
and individually check approx 200 agents on the floor.

Regards,

Eijaz

If you put the data in the worksheet, it can be sorted.

If the list is a list of agents logged in, then you would need
a
list
of
all
agents and have to make a comparison against this list to
determine
who
isn't logged in.

If you want to build a test string of this write code to
animate
it
by
removing a character from one end and adding a character to
other,
then
you
can put this information in the status bar. Excel provides no
particular
support for the animation and it would be time intensive -
distracting
from
you 15 sec refresh of the data in the web page.

I can't say what you can do with a web page.

Hi,

I am trying to retrieve data from an external webpage which
refreshes
automatically every 15 secs. It displays the list of agent
ID's
logged
in
to
our system at a particular time.

The webpage shows a data in table format similar to this:

Agent ID TimeOnCall someothercolumns


1) Is it possible to SORT the extracted data on a worksheet
OR
a
locally
available webpage file on a network drive,

2) Show the AgentID's along with LAST TimeOnCall for that
agent
who
logged
out, (scrolling or displayed) in the Status Bar of a
Worksheet
or
webpage,
by which I would come to know that this agent has just
logged
out
&
is
not
working? So that i can approach the agent & ask him to login
again.

Any Help would be appreciated!

Thanking you in advance.

This is a suggestion. If you know where the logout info is
stored
in
your system you should be able to (as long as your system is
windows
conpatable) write a program to interface with it to look for the
required information and post it to your sreadsheet. But do this
with
care.

Hope this gives you some ideals.
