Apologies if this has already been asked and answered. Struggling to find an answer.

We have an internal system that only works through Internet Explorer (I know!).

The particular page I need is just one line of basic text.

I need to open the relevant URL (let's say it's in Cell A1) copy the text and paste it in to cell B1, then close IE.

This is the format of the data on each page:

<html xmlns:e="ADDRESS REMOVE" xmlns:s="ADDRESSREMOVED">
<head>
<META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-16">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Bin.css">
</head>
<body>
<table width="40%">
<tr>
<td>NOT allowed at this property</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>


I just need to return the data between <td> & </td>, so NOT allowed at this property

Thanks in advance!

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)

Just to add I've got as far as opening the page, but I can't get any further. To open the page, I use:

Sub OpenCRMLinkinIE()
'
' OpenCRMLinkinIE Macro
'

If ActiveSheet.Range("A1") = "" Then
Else
Dim IE As Object
Set IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
IE.navigate ActiveSheet.Range("A1")
IE.Visible = True
Set IE = Nothing

End If
'
End Sub
