Hi Joel,

Genius.... what a code!! I could not understand head or tail of codes....
from where it takes data from and stores in a variable and writes back into
excel.... superb way of coding. Thanks for your prompt reply.

The codes given by you gives current day's report but if i want to have
previous days data by entering my preferred date and then extract the data
similar to previous one, into excel sheet. HOw can i do it.

Thanks once again.

I will take a look toight if there is a way to get previous day data.


You don't need to put data into a variable, you can read data in th
webpage and put it directly into excel. The text is in a propert
called innertext on the webpag
