While we are on the subject of Microsoft & the Stock Market.

* Do you know of any Microsoft Stock Market Applications/Add-ins/
Utilities/etc ?

John,

You can download and install the MSN Stock Quote add-in

http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...a-803e-68d5da0
c6b57/msnsq.exe

It offers a function that can extract different informational items about
a stock, depending on the
input parameter.

HTH,

Folks:

I have a simple 1-column Excel spreadsheet containing the ticker
symbols
of
a variety of stocks.
Now, manually I can go to a website

(http://www.briefing.com/Investor/Pri...gsCalendar.htm)
&
individually type in these ticker symbols then wait for the printed
results
to displayed on a new window. Then I would copy the data of interest to
me
(a single date - yy/yy/yyyy ). Eventually I got to thinking there must
be
some way to automate this manual task using Excel or any other program.

* Is there an Excel command (or some other technique) that can take
input
(stock ticker symbol) then submit this information to a specific
website
then extract the results (a date - yy/yy/yyyy) then finally return
same to
the excel cell ?

Appreciate any informaton or ideas on this issue

Thanks,
John.
