CodeLyoko Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Hi guys,Okay so I am a complete noob. So if this is something i need to learn for myself, just tell me so and ill be on my way. But I was wondering how one could fetch data from a certain site (that is displayed on a webpage, a table for example) and import it to a file (an excel sheet for eg) without using automation on a browser? is that possible?As in, i want the process to occur invisibly, without visible automation. Since i want to fetch data from multiple sites (aproximately a hundred) all at once - browser automation would be unfeasible.Thanks in advance!

CodeLyoko Posted May 14, 2015 Author Share Posted May 14, 2015 Have you looked at the WinHTTP UDF?Would it be too much to ask for you to edit the sample code given to an example code with what i want (fetch table, save to excel file)? Once again, I started scripting a day back, so if this is an undue favor, please ignore this ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
