Hi all.

Column A has my search query and I want to be able to get column B to display the domain name for the first search result only. I prefer google but any search engine should do. What are some ideas on how to go about doing this?


For example:
[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Pizza[/TD]
[TD]pizzahut.com[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Los Angeles[/TD]
[TD]wikipedia.org[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Miami City Clerk[/TD]
[TD]miamigov.com[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Activision[/TD]
[TD]activision.com[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Google[/TD]
[TD]google.com[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
