I'm trying to get and analyze data from the Web in Excel. I know I'm
following the steps correctly, however when I press ok the microsoft
assistant informs me it "cannot download the information requested" how can
I fix this?

I think you are too frugal with information, how do you download the info?
What are you trying to do?

Thank you for your help Peo. I'm trying to import msn money stock quotes onto
my work sheet. I'm using the following steps:
clicking "data" on the tool bar, then going to "get external data" then "run
saved queries" then selecting microsoft stock quotes, then entering the stock
symbols I want and pressing ok. That's when I receive the "cannot download
the information requested" message. I hope this is helps you help me. I
really appreciate it.

I can't check it since I believe you need an account but you are doing it
the correct way, you might want to try again by starting over and do
dataimport external data and new web query, go to the page and select the
table and import it, then save the query again
