Hi, I am trying to import date-wise exchange rate from this link: "Exchange Rates | Da Afghanistan Bank" I want the first coloumn to be the date and then from the second column onward the exchange rates for USD. I want excel to automatically perform this function and get the rates from 1 January to 31 December of a particular year. Is it possible it automated?
 

Excel Facts

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
Try VBA.
Copy the code below into a new workbook's VBA Module.
(Open a new Workbook and press Alt+F11 , and then insert a new Module to copy the code)
(Press F5 to run the macro.)
Run the main code "sbGetWebByPQ".
You can set the first day by "myDate1", and the last day by "myDate2 ".
Hope you enjoy this.
VBA Code:
'sbGetWebByPQ is the Main code.
Sub sbGetWebByPQ()
    Dim myTimer
    myTimer = Now()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim myDate1
    myDate1 = DateValue("1/1/2021")  'M/D/YYYY, the first day
    Dim myDate2
    myDate2 = DateValue("3/1/2021") 'the last day
   
    Dim myName 'Query name is also date.
    Dim myYear
    Dim myMonth
    Dim myDay
    ThisWorkbook.Worksheets.Add
    For myName = myDate1 To myDate2
        myYear = Year(myName)
        myMonth = Month(myName)
        myDay = Day(myName)
        'Add a Power Query
