    Question VB Script to Get full Meta Description including after Quote Mark Texts.

    Hi,

    I have a couple of URLs for which I want to fetch up the meta description in Excel (2007). The problem is meta descriptions these URLs are having, contain quotes mark (particularly with numbers as a quote for inches sign. e.g. 7").

    When I am trying to extract these information using a VB script, I am only getting first portion of the description i.e. before quote mark (7"), not second portion of the description i.e. after quote mark.

    Can anyone help me on this issue. How exactly I can get the entire meta description. Can any one right that exact VB Script for me. Any help would be highly appreciated.

    Thanks in Advance

    Hi Leith,

    Thanks for warm greeting.

    Here are more details of my issue:

    I have some thousands of urls in Excel column A. Lets take example of 1 URL. I have below URL in A1 cell:

    http://www.tableclothsfactory.com/ta...ashes-s/54.htm

    And I am applying this formula in cell B1, after executing below mentioned VB Script in Excel:
    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    VB Script:

    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    When I apply above mentioned formula in cell B1, I am getting following result as a meta description of cell A1 URL:

    "Find all of your 70"

    However, the actual meta description of this URL is "<meta name="description" content="Find all of your 70" Shop the selection of round table linens in our wholesale table linens selection.">"

    Can anyone tell me, what part of script I need to change in order to get full meta description (mentioned above with bold letters)?

    Hoping a quick solution.
