I am running Excel 2000 and need to capture a BUNCH of data from an online
database (name, address, company). There are about 15,000 records that I need to capture. The problem is that I have a hyperlink to each record but don't have access to the entire database all at once, i.e., you click on the hyperlink and it opens the web page and displays the information. I would have to click on each and every hyperlink, copy the data, paste it into the spreadsheet, transpose it from columns to rows and then do it all over again for 15,000 records! I would be drawing Social Security before I completed that task manually. Can a macro be written that will automate this procedure? Following is a sample of the data. The URL actually has an ID associated with it (it's the last digits of the address). You would click on the ID and it would hyperlink you to the URL. http://www.memberbase.com/ncrec-new/...hdb.asp?212598 ABAR, NARIMAN http://www.memberbase.com/ncrec-new/...hdb.asp?130751 ABBAT, R MARINA http://www.memberbase.com/ncrec-new/...hdb.asp?183382 ABBEY, RICHARD C http://www.memberbase.com/ncrec-new/...hdb.asp?144632 ABBOTT JR, R CHARLES http://www.memberbase.com/ncrec-new/...hdb.asp?212402 ABDELLA, RICHARD M http://www.memberbase.com/ncrec-new/...hdb.asp?174271 ABDULLAH, MARTIN F http://www.memberbase.com/ncrec-new/...chdb.asp?48655 ABERNETHY, DIANE J http://www.memberbase.com/ncrec-new/...chdb.asp?78940 ABERNETHY, MARTHA B http://www.memberbase.com/ncrec-new/...hdb.asp?176794 ABNEY, NORMAN D http://www.memberbase.com/ncrec-new/...hdb.asp?201267 ABOOD, JOHN D Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
