Thread: IE Automation

Right heres the question:

Is it possible to take two postcodes from a sheet in excel, paste them into any route finding software i.e. Google Maps, Multimap or google earth, search the route and paste the results back to excel?

I think i need a geek to come to my rescue on this one!!

Any help is appreciated!!!

I dont mind which route finder i use any of them would do ... google maps is my favourite. Basically i have a matrix of postcode's and i need to be able to take two of them and enter them to the route finding site and extract the result back to the spreadsheet. The postcodes i have are only the first half of the postcode i.e. IG11 and i have checked that they are all correct so no need for data validation for the minute. YOUR HELP WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED!!

Thanks
