Im pretty new to VBA coding and searching on online and youtube hasnt yielded much help, as they all have their own way to do it and its been very confusing.
I can do this via "Data > Get External Data > From Web" but its pulls in way more then what I need, as it picks the whole page and not table.
without the Do While loop, the page loads fine, once I use it, I get an error message and debug highlights "Loop Until objIE.readyState = 15"

I just want to pull data from the Div Class "tdp-content" and paste it into the sheet called Alps OB

Below is my code.


Code:
<code style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: inherit; font-family: Consolas, Menlo, Monaco, "Lucida Console", "Liberation Mono", "DejaVu Sans Mono", "Bitstream Vera Sans Mono", "Courier New", monospace, sans-serif; vertical-align: baseline; box-sizing: inherit; white-space: inherit;">[COLOR=#101094][FONT=inherit]Sub[/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#303336][FONT=inherit] AlpsOB[/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#303336][FONT=inherit]()[/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#303336][FONT=inherit]

Excel Facts

Back into an answer in Excel
Use Data, What-If Analysis, Goal Seek to find the correct input cell value to reach a desired result
The value to check the readyState is 4. Also, you should check the Busy property as well. Therefore, try...

Code:
    With IE
        Do While .Busy Or .readyState <> 4
            DoEvents
        Loop
    End With

Hope this helps!
