I have a peculiar problem. I am familiar with getting external data through
webquery I want to download some CURRENT DATA of stocks from a webpage I have a webpage the first link is something like let us call this "current data" with address as http://www.nseindia.com/bhavcopy/BhavHandler?segment=0 this link leads me to another link giving me a choice to download either in csv or dbf fomat If I click either of these I get the current data. I can copy this link name in my newwebquery window against item1. But this link has got a date embedded in the address for e.g as given below http://www.nseindia.com/content/hist...m28MAY2004bhav ..csv I understand why this had been done because the data of 28th May will go into their archives which can be downloaded whenevaer anybody wants. But I am interested only downloading the CURRENT data. If I refresh data on 31st I will get only on 28th data and not 31st data. I can copy the address of the first link given above in my webquery but on clicking this webquery I will get only the text as follows in my excel ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------- Home Equities Market Information Market Today Latest Bhavcopy Latest Bhavcopy Download file in csv format----------(my note:this and the following one are web links in the webpage=here it is text) Download file in dbf format ================================================== . as this is only a text in my excel I cannot click it to get the data any solutions to do this by vba or have I to everyday manually do getexternaldata and click the correct link. I have explained to some detail to be celar to me. thanks. |
