I posted the below to various technical support groups. Anyone have any ideas?
__________________________________________________ ______ I have been passed across multiple technical support groups, with each stating that the problem is in another area. This email is being sent to the Office, MSN, and Money technical support groups. Surely one of you should own the problem. The problem is with the MSN Money website. I have used Excel web queries for years to download financial data. In the last couple of weeks it has stopped working BECAUSE A CHANGE HAS BEEN MADE TO THE WEBSITE. I am trying to cut my losses at this point and determine if it is temporary, and if anyone is working on it, or if MSN has decided to not allow download of financial data. The simplest description of the problem is as follows: 1. Using a new Excel workbook with no data. 2. Use the Data/Import External Data/New Web Query menu selection. 3. Use the browser window to browse to the data, such as the basic quotes table in MSN, and select the table. 4. Select Import. The following message dialog is displayed: Unable to open http://moneycentral.msn.com/detail/s...ote?Symbol=aig. The Internet site reports that a connection was established but the data is not available. This occurs every time an import is attempted, and has been occuring for about the last two or three weeks. The same query works fine against Yahoo or Morningstar, so the problem is with the MSN Money website. |
