244261 2004-06-14 03:01:00 What's the easiest way to get live data into Access from a website? for example exchange rates from www.nationalbank.co.nz

I've tried creating a macro, using the TransferText method, but this expects a page with the suffix htm,html,txt, etc - (The example page is a .asp extension)

It shouldn't be difficult - basically I need to run a procedure that updates the figures in a table.

Any Ideas?

You may have to parse the html page to remove all the html tags or can Access do this.
