    Modify a website / post to forum with Excel VBA?

    Hi,
    I'll start by saying that I'm very new to Excel VBA (and programming, in general). I was hoping that someone here could help point me in the right direction.

    I work for a company in which we use an internal webpage for collaboration. On this webpage, there is an area where users can post comments (something similar to a Facebook wall, etc.) - I can't really post any more details about the webpage or it's use due to it being proprietary to the company. I have created a macro which performs certain functions relevant to the information on the webpage (though not connected directly). What I would like to do is to have the Excel macro, at the end of performing all functions, post a comment from the user to the webpage.

    Is this something that could be a possibility? One more thing (not sure if this is relevant or not) - the webpage is only compatible with Google Chrome. (sorry, I know this request is a bit vague)

    Thanks!

    If the webpage is ran using a database then you could connect directly to the database and Insert the relevant record ie bypass the webpage altogether. Alternatively you could use SENDKEYS to output the message to the page.
