Importing a Web Query

[Charles]

Hi everybody,

I have a little problem when importing a web query. I go to the the Data
menu and choose the "New Web Query" option. Then I go the following page:

http://www.banxico.org.mx

and click on the "Mercado cambiario" link then I clic on the yellow arrow
that is on the left of the data I want to import (in this case it is just the
money exchange rate) . When I click on the Import button, it imports the data
but also puts a legend on the left that says "Obteniendo datos ..." (in
English "Getting data ..."). I don't know hoy to modify this web query in
order that it doesn't write this legend. I try to delete it on the worksheet
but Excel keeps writing this legend every time I refresh the information.

Does anybody know how to avoid importing this legend?

Thanks in advance,

Charles

Thank you very much for your help Don. Yes that is the information I want to
import, but I don't want the legend "Obteniendo datos..." I don't know why
Excel writes it if it is not on the web page.
