Hello simpleonline1234,

Yes, you can control Internet Explorer with VBA. It will take me some time to pull the code together for you.

Hello simpleonline1234,

Here is the macro. You will need to change the file path and name and the URL to what you will be using.

Hi Sir,

I would like to seek your assistance as I have seen your comments in some of the threads here.

My question is, is it possible to navigate internet explorer using a macro in a way that the macro will do the clicking and searching. Hope you could spend a couple of minutes answering my query. Thanks a lot.
