Hi,

I have recently start a macro to run on a daily basis. It is to tak
data twice daily from an internet site and then intup this data to
table in date order.

Below is my macro thus far. It manages to get the data from th
internet input the data on the first sheet(DO NOT CHANGE) of m
workbook.

I would then like to know if it is possible to input this data, using
macro, every twelve hours into a table. Some time the data may come i
missing soem or with a time step, therefore would like the data to b
kept and updated in date and time order.

Also while I am so busying picking your brains would like to know if i
is posible to set this macro to run every twleve hours automaticly

Thanks for your time and help

Look at Chip Pearson's page on using Application.Ontime

http://www.cpearson.com/excel/ontime.htm

Excel would have to remain open to use that approach.
