If you can display the page with the data you need in a browser, then Excel
can pick up the data by using the "Get External Data" utilities. These
utilities are not hard to use, however you usually get a bit more data than
you want.

You will have to paste the URL of the web page into the query and then make
some decisions about tables and formatting and stuff. Make sure you start
the "Get External Data" utilities while you are on a blank worksheet at cell
A1. When the query is finished and you are returned to the worksheet there
will be a small delay then the data you requested will show up on the
worksheet.

I have created an Excel workbook customization with vsto 2008 and have
published it to one of our intranet servers. All is good, however, I need
to pass a value to that that workbook so that it loads with the
appropriate data. Is there a way to do this?

Tried http://OurIntranetServer/MyExcelWork...sx%20/e/12345/
and hoped to capture the command line arguments. Didn't work. Thanks.
