Pulling and Pushing web page data
 

Hello,
It does not seem that excel can do what I want, but please
make any suggestions both from within excel and outside of
excel on how to achieve my objective.

I want to on an hourly basis log on to a web page (the
logging on part seems to give excel a lot of problems)
issue a series of commands (tabs, enter data, hit return,
etc.) until I get to what I want, copy a series of data,
bring it back to excel, massage the data, than go back out
to the web, push the results of my calculations back into
a web page(logging in again).
I assume that I could do this with microsoft c++.net, but
I don't own the compiler and this seems like such a common
thing to want to do, I wouldn't expect to have to buy a
complier just write a few lines of code. HELP!!!

Any ideas, please email me at

Thanks,
Bruce

Jake,

I've read though you previous post, what would the best process be for
pushing JavaScript using the post command?

Hi Bruce,

This thread may give you some insight as to how this could be done from
within Excel (Automating IE):

[watch for line wrap]
