whousedmy

Hi All & Good Day,

I'm student doing my attachment. I've encounter this problem and I
really need some help here.
Please kindly help or share any knowlegde if u can. I will be very
greatful for any help given. THanks a million in adv.

Problem:

I've this junk of code and what i need to extract is the ItemID after
swItem= but there main problem here is i only need the first part which
highlight in blue.

Therefore i'm wondering if it's possible to write a VBA or anything
which will find the HTML tag

<aclass="udrlinesmall then extract the inform within the which wildcard
happen to be <XXXXXXXXXX>
and inside the wildcard find the second wildcard which is swItem= then
extract the ItemID = "MTX-c380636094ed4c24a5a22b6542" and paste in in a
new doc or at the bottom of the doc.

*NOTE : There is more then "swItem=" therefore it need to be inside the
<aclass="udrlinesmall xxxxx....> tag

Really thanks everyone in adv. This will be great different in my grade
for attachment pls kindly help if can. THANK YOU!

Hi whousedmy,

The whole point of your education is that you should learn how to do things for yourself. Asking others to do it for you so that you
can get better grades is cheating.

I note you posted the same Q at Mr Excel.

Cheers
