Web Query Without URL
I am used to working with web queries such as the one below:
For Each c In Sheets("Sheet1").Range("B1:E1") lstRw = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row str1 = "URL;http://finance.yahoo.com/currency/convert?amt=1&from=USD&to=" & _ c.Value & _ "&submit=Convert" With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:=str1 _ , Destination:=Range("A" & lstRw + 1)) €¦etc, etc, etc End With Next c What I cant figure out is how a query is done when there is no URL! Basically, a guy who is no longer with the company created a web query, and used some technique, which I am not familiar with, to do the query. I know the query is for foreign exchange rates, and I can tell that the query source is somehow linked to: www.xrate.com I can't find a URL anywhere though. I only figured out that a web query is being done when I disconnected the Ethernet connection and launched Excel. A message popped up saying something like Excel was unable to query a table from xrate.com. I just cant figure out how this query is actually done. Can anyone shed some light on this topic for me?

The query is most likely a data query that has no VBA code behind it. It is
created by choosing the menu command Data-Import External Data-New Web Query. To edit the query, find the table in the workbook where the results are placed, right-click on the table, and choose "Edit Query". Kevin |
