Web Query address parameter
 

I've created a Web Query that retrieves information about a certain stock.
Instead of modifying a parameter in the web query address when I want to
select a different stock, is there a way to insert the text from a cell on
the spreadsheet?

example: http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=ibm gets me IBM. Can the parameter
"IBM" get input by the user or selected from a cell (say +a10)?

Thanks

Web Query address parameter
 

try
s=&[a10]
or
s="&[a10]

If you are doing this by code, pls post your code here (Do NOT attach
workbook)
