Hi All,

I'm writing a detailed program in excel vba compiling several
worksheets from various files into one. Some of these sheets are
generated by a private online server.

I would like help with writing code to access the internet and to
select the appropriate data to download by having vba automatically
select the appropriate CHECKBOXES on the website.

Start by searching something like "IE Automation" within the group.
There's lots of internet automation stuff within the group. I have
found code on clicking items from drop downs, clicking on images and
links, selecting check boxes, etc.

I probably did it the very hard way (one of my trademarks!), but I
managed something similar in Word VBA. I used objects Dim'd without a
type to get to the IE Application object, the IE Document object,
iterate through all the input and link objects until I found the name
of the one I wanted set an object to it, and then finally wound up
with objCB.onclick to actuate the on-click event of the checkbox and
run the associated script.

I got a lot of help from the following web sites:
http://slayeroffice.com/tools/modi/v2.0/modi_help.html
A Java Bookmarklet that runs an on-screen object identifier
http://www.w3schools.com/htmldom/dom_intro.asp
A breakdown of the IE document and application objects

Another look at the IE document object

Have fun!

Hi,

Public wIE As InternetExplorer

Set wIE = New InternetExplorer
If QVER Then
wIE.Visible = True
Else
wIE.Silent = True
''''' BUG MICROSOFT SENÃO NÃO H� EVENTOS
wIE.Left = -1 * (wIE.Width)
End If
wIE.navigate "www.XPTO.com"
.......
Do
Set hDocIE = Nothing
Set hDocIE = wIE.document
Sleep 100
SC = hDocIE.all.Length - 1
If hDocIE.all.Item(SC).readyState = "complete" Then Exit Do
If NN 12 Then
TUNGA = True
Exit Do
End If
Sleep 1000
NN = NN + 1
Loop
If TUNGA Then Err.Raise 45600, , "Error...."
