Default Any examples of VBA and Amazon Web Services (ECS) Programs???

I'm on a project to build a database of approximately 1,200 books from
a friends library (30 years worth) in Excel. I recently learned about
Amazon's ECS web services where you can search and retrieve
information on books (and other products) by IBSN. My friend will key
in the IBSN in column A of the spreadsheet and what I need to do is
for every IBSN search Amazon's database and retrieve title, authors,
date published, etc. and place in adjoining columns.

I thought I'd ask here if there are any examples of VBA code to access
and retrieve data from Amazon (directly into the spreadsheet, rather
than using intermediate files).

Any other quick ways to accomplish the task?

I'd like to get a jump on this task.

Thanks,

Carl
