Don, this VBA returns a complied error stating "Next
without For". I named my list of last names as "myList"
Range "A2:A60".

Sub WebQ()
For Each Name In myList
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"url;http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players?search=" &
_
Name, Destination:=Range("C1"))
Next Name
End Sub

Also if we do get this to work, won't it keep inserting
the data retrived from the web in cell C1?

Any thoughts
Pete

this is what I got when I ask for romo. Apparently you
can't get first names
or ID?
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players?search=henson
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?
statsId=6624&out
So you would have to create a list and loop through the
list of last names
unless you can get the ID number for each player.
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players?search=henson
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?
statsId=6624&out

henson
romo
glenn
etc

sort of like this. I did not test

for each name in [mylist]
"url;http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players?search="&
name,Destination:=Range("C1"))
next name

Here is what I got so far...

Range("C1").Select
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"URL;http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players?
league=nfl", _
Destination:=Range("C1"))
.Name = Range("A1")
.WebTables = "2,5"
End With

Not much I know... but it shows where I am with this.
Range A1 has the player name in it. Cell C1 is where I
wnt the info to go for that particular player. The
info I
bring in just happens to take up 13 cells straight
down.

This one might not be possible, but I thought I
would
try.

I want to analize some data in excel that is taken
off
the web but first I need to inport the data into one
master database. My problem is that I need to inport
roughtly 55-60 different pieces or files of info and
each
piece of info is linked to another web
address "Hyperlinded". I have the Web address
(located
in
cell A1) I need to go to start with and also a list
of
names (located in Cells A2:A60) that I need to
click on
to get the appropriate info.

How can I tell the web query to goto this particular
wed
site find the first name in cell A2 open that new
address
and inport a particular chart in the first avalilbe
cell
in coloum C?

I have tried recording this and inserting loop
statment
to keep going but it just doesn't work for me.

Any help or guidance is appreciated.
Best regards,
Pete
