The process result after copy/paste a web page into a worksheet is *entirely different* than reading the webpage source. Both my examples read webpage source *not the rendered page you see in the browser*! The fault of using copy/paste on a webpage is that different browsers *often* won't necessarily display content the same way. If you read the source in the tmp.txt you 'should' very quickly realize these pages are a template wherein data is dynamically inserted from a database via script embeded in the source html. I use the last URL query *you provided* in both the worksheet approach and the AutoParse() sub. The tmp.txt file shows the complete webpage source, whereas txtPgSrc shows the webpage source *as rendered* in WebBrowser1. WebBrowser1 will display whatever is in the URL cell above it; AutoParse uses the string defined as Public Const gsUrl1$. You need to decide what URL string you want to run with and set both the URL cell and gsUrl1 strings to that. Scrap using the copy/paste webpage approach altogether because it's unreliable at best and renders inconsistent results at worst! (*Clue:* Note how WebBrowser1 wraps content but xtPgSrc does not!) You are collecting data here, NOT capturing webpage content as rendered. The data displays according to the source behind the rendered webpage. That source is structured to be dynamic in terms of what data is rendered based on the URL string, and HOW it displays depends on the browser being used to view the data. In this case, WebBrowser1 uses the same engine as Internet Explorer, and what you see on your screen *depends on* which version of that engine is running! If you've ever used HTML to build webpages you'd know (or at the very least *should know*) instinctively that the code source is the only reliable element to work with.
