Getting data from HTML source in VBA (excel)

Question

I\'m trying to collect data from a website, which should be manageable once the source is in string form. Looking around I\'ve assembled some possible solutions but have run

Answer 1

If I were trying to pull the opening price off from 08/10/12 off of that page, which is similar to what I assume you are doing, I'd do something like this:

    Set ie = New InternetExplorer
    With ie
        .navigate "http://eoddata.com/stockquote/NASDAQ/AAPL.htm"
        .Visible = False
        While .Busy Or .readyState <> READYSTATE_COMPLETE
           DoEvents
        Wend
        Set objHTML = .document
        DoEvents
    End With
    Set elementONE = objHTML.getElementsByTagName("TD")
    For i = 1 To elementONE.Length
        elementTWO = elementONE.Item(i).innerText           
        If elementTWO = "08/10/12" Then
            MsgBox (elementONE.Item(i + 1).innerText)
            Exit For
        End If
    Next i
    DoEvents
    ie.Quit
    DoEvents
    Set ie = Nothing

You can modify this to run through the HTML and pull whatever data you want. Iteration +2 would return the high price, etc.

Since there are a lot of dates on that page you might also want to make it check that it is between the Recent End of Day Prices and the Company profile.
