Getting Data From Html Source In Vba (excel)

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 into pro

Solution 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
    EndWithSet elementONE = objHTML.getElementsByTagName("TD")
    For i =1To elementONE.Length
        elementTWO = elementONE.Item(i).innerText           
        If elementTWO = "08/10/12" Then
            MsgBox (elementONE.Item(i +1).innerText)
            Exit ForEnd 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.
