Unfortunately, I think copy and paste is the best way. All that info is
dynamic, so clicking links doesn't change the URL. That makes it impossible
to use a webquery or just open the web page in Excel, because the URL will
always point to the home page, not the odds page that you want.
There's probably some convoluted way that you could programmatically click
links to get to the right place, but if the web site changes even one little
thing, you'll get garbage back.

Hi All,
I have a racing site BetFair of which I want to get the odds
from
and am having trouble getting the data to import even though I can copy
and
paste it into excel, there are other sites where I can do this quite
easily
but for some reason this site will not allow it ( for me anyway )
if after following the link you go to next horse race you will see the
data
needed shown as AUD back and lay.
I am happy to do the work myself I just need any suggestions as to the
best
way to do this
http://global.betfair.com/
thanks in advance for any help
regards
Pete
