Click Element in Internet Explorer with VBA

[4Heads]

I need to click a 3-elipses button/element on a page. It doesn't have the usual ID, Name etc. Once clicked, there is a drop down and I need to click COPY from the drop down. How do I click these elements. Thanks. Here is the code:

Elipses Button HTML

<span class="more-item-trigger__white cyb-icon-ic_more" _ngcontent-cog-c54=""></span>

Drop down Item HTML

<span class="action-menu-item__text" style="overflow: hidden; -ms-text-overflow: ellipsis;" _ngcontent-cog-c62=""> Copy </span>

I tried this but the VBE didn't like the last underscore:

ie.Document.getElementsByClassName("more-item-trigger__white cyb-icon-ic_more" _ngcontent-bfb-c54="")

More of the HTML if it would help.

<button class="small white--colors small-white more-item-trigger more-item-trigger--colors more-item-trigger--typography more-item-trigger--" aria-label="more items" data-testid="more-actions-button" _ngcontent-mcx-c54="">
<span class="more-item-trigger__white cyb-icon-ic_more" _ngcontent-mcx-c54="">
</span>
</button>

Welcome!

It looks like your issue is possibly needing some quotes within a string. For that, you need to escape the quotes: Quotation marks in VBA

Yes 'cause the underscore has nothing to do with the class ‼ ​

As obviously the class is colored in orange …​

Thank you. I tried the following. The statement now no longer errors out in the code window, but it doesn't click the ellipses element in IE. Any other suggestions?

IE.document.getElementsByClassName ("""more-item-trigger__white cyb-icon-ic_more""" & Chr(32) & Chr(95) & "ngcontent-bfb-c54=""""")

Thanks, not sure what you mean. Should I get rid of the underscore then? This is my latest code.

IE.document.getElementsByClassName ("""more-item-trigger__white cyb-icon-ic_more""" & Chr(32) & Chr(95) & "ngcontent-bfb-c54=""""")
