Collecting phonenumbers from Yellow pages
 
Friends,

I have a list of information about our customers names and addresses.
What I would like to have is their phonenumbers.
I can easily find the information that I am searching for at the Yellow
Pages on
the Internet. Would it be possible to use my list and with excel create a
script
of some kind that automatically can download the information I need into the
sheet?
Is this possible or is it too advanced for Excel?

The problem is probably not Excel, but extracting from the Internet. You
would probably have to login to Yellow Pages with an id and password, and my
experience is that they can be difficult, if not impossible, to script,
belugas of the protocol.
