I suspect that as the data was for xl2000 that the url is no longer available.

I am guessing that you are learning how to do a Web Query.
Any URL that you know has some importable data will do. Try this one to import some financial numbers. http://shaw.stockgroup.com/markets.asp?c=ca Or this for some Hockey stats http://start.shaw.ca/Start/enCA/Sports/ Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Mon, 3 Mar 2008 15:51:01 -0800, Billy Liddel wrote: I suspect that as the data was for xl2000 that the url is no longer available.

Yes Gord, I have this book and it tells you how to create a web query,
but doesn't specify a website. You would just pick any one. --JP On Mar 3, 7:28*pm, Gord Dibben <gorddibbATshawDOTca wrote: I am guessing that you are learning how to do a Web Query.
