I'm trying to scrape some Yahoo Finance data from their website, and I've inherited some VBA which allows me to do this mostly.

However, as you can see from the picture, I have a problem where the script tries to scrape a field that is blank. If it's blank, I want to put an "N/A" return in the field, rather than just putting the 'next' field in it's place.

    myrng.Clear
    
End Sub

Would anyone be able to help me to fix this?

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)

Would you like a bit of simplification as well? Is there more to this code that you aren't showing?

Hi Moshi, thanks for the reply!

I would love some simplification please! That is all of the code.

Hi Moshi, thanks for the reply!

Try this. Make sure you save beforehand.

Was there a reason for your Do Until Loop ? As it was, it effectively did nothing. Also is my understanding correct that you want the string in-between the first and second term that doesn't intersect with either term.

For example if given the following then you want 1.
"trailingAnnualDividendRate":{"raw":1,"fmt":"1.00"}

If so then my changes will give you that string without having to further split it.

VBA Code:
Private Sub qTest_3()

Dim Data_Output() As Variant, Tickers() As Variant, ws As Worksheet, Last_Row As Long, Z As Long, B As Long, Response_STR As String

Dim URL2 As String, metrics() As Variant, Element As Variant, Http2 As New WinHttpRequest

'Set Http2 = CreateObject("Msxml2.ServerXMLHTTP")

Dim FirstTerm As String, SecondTerm As String, NextPosition As Double, StartPos As Double, StopPos As Double

Call clear_data

Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Main")

With ws
    Last_Row = .Range("A" & .Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
    Tickers = .Range(Cells(2, 1), Cells(Last_Row, 1)).Value
End With

metrics = Array("dividendRate", "dividendYield", "fiveYearAvgDividendYield", "trailingAnnualDividendRate", "exDividendDate")

ReDim Data_Output(1 To UBound(Tickers, 1), 1 To UBound(metrics) + IIf(LBound(metrics) = 0, 1, 0))

SecondTerm = "," & Chr(34) & "fmt" & Chr(34)                     ',"fmt"

For Z = 1 To UBound(Tickers, 1)

    URL2 = "https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/" & Tickers(Z, 1) & "/key-statistics?p=" & Tickers(Z, 1)
   
    Http2.Open "GET", URL2, False
    Http2.send
    Response_STR = Http2.responseText
   
    B = 1
   
    For Each Element In metrics
   
        FirstTerm = Chr(34) & Element & Chr(34) & ":{" & Chr(34) & "raw" & Chr(34) & ":"  'Example  "dividendRate":{"raw":
        NextPosition = 1    'Starting character to search from set to the 1st
       
        StartPos = InStr(NextPosition, Response_STR, FirstTerm, vbTextCompare) 'Find location of 1st Term
       
        If StartPos <> 0 Then 'If the FirstTerm is found after NextPosition then search for the SecondTerm
       
            StopPos = InStr(StartPos, Response_STR, SecondTerm, vbTextCompare)  'Find location of 2nd Term starting at the location of the 1st Term
           
            If StopPos <> 0 Then 'Find string in-between that doesn't intersect with either term
                Data_Output(Z, B) = Mid$(Response_STR, StartPos + Len(FirstTerm), StopPos - (StartPos + Len(FirstTerm)))
            Else
                Data_Output(Z, B) = "N/A"
            End If
           
        Else
            Data_Output(Z, B) = "N/A"
        End If
       
        B = B + 1

    Next Element
   
Next Z

ws.Range(Cells(2, 1), Cells(Last_Row, 1)).Offset(0, 1).Resize(UBound(Data_Output, 1), 5).Value = Data_Output

MsgBox ("Done")

End Sub

My word. You are a wizard.

This has solved all of my problems. I can't believe how helpful this site is.

Incredible! Thank you!!

There's one small edit near the top that needs to be made to avoid some potential errors.
Change
VBA Code:
.Range(Cells(2, 1), Cells(Last_Row, 1)).Value
to
Code:
.Range(.Cells(2, 1), .Cells(Last_Row, 1)).Value

Very useful script, thanks. I wanted to add items to the line "metrics = Array" but it kept only giving the first 5. Went down to the line just above MsgBox and adjusted ".Resize(UBound(Data_Output, 1), 6)" form a 5 to a 6 to get an extra item and it worked. How would I get the script to adjust automatically to the number of items in the "metrics = Array" line. Thanks

replace the 5 with UBound(Data_Output, 2) or ubound(metrics)+1
