Ultimately, I would like to combine the results from the following onto one sheet:

1) CreateObject("WScript.Shell").Run "cmd /c netsh wlan show networks mode=BSSID" & _
"|clip""", 0, True
specifically:
SSID, Networktype, Authentication, Encryption, MAC Address (BSSID), Signal level, Radiotype, Band, & Channel ... I have the code to do this :)

2) Data scraped from WLAN_AVAILABLE_NETWORK
specifically:
uNumberOfBssids, uNumberOfPhyTypes, dot11PhyTypes

3) Data scraped from WLAN_BSS_ENTRY
specifically:
lRssi, uLinkQuality, usBeaconPeriod, ullTimestamp


The code I have for getting the data from WLAN_AVAILABLE_NETWORK works perfectly.

The problems I encounter is when I try getting the data from WLAN_BSS_ENTRY.

The problems seem to be multiple.
The gathering of data from WLAN_BSS_ENTRY only occasionally works for the first row of data, most of the time it produces 'garbage' info. All additional rows seem to result in 'garbage' info.

I would tend to think that the issue is a memory pointer issue not being incremented properly.

I have also noticed that the WLAN_AVAILABLE_NETWORK section that works perfectly, doesn't 'jive' with the results from WLAN_BSS_ENTRY ... ie. The SSID's aren't matched up.


Any help would be most appreciated. Probably serves me right for delving into this area of API's and such that I am not used to dealing with.

Perhaps someone such as @Jaafar Tribak or others that are wise to this approach of 'scraping' data could assist.

The following is the code I am currently trying to use to scrape the data from WLAN_AVAILABLE_NETWORK & WLAN_BSS_ENTRY:

1) lines in the 'bas_API' module with the '^' are not liked by excel. I had to remove all of those '^' in the lines that they were found in.
2) a few lines in the 'UserForm1' module produced errors RTE 9
1) Oops!
^ that sympbol coerces the litteral value 8 or variable into a LongLong (8bits) just like ClngLng does or ClngPtr ... I used that when editing\debugging the code because I have office x64bit and forgot to remove it ... Just removing it should prevent the compile error and the code should still work accross all excel versions bitneswise without needing to change the variables or api declarations.

2) For debugging purposes, try adding the line below right at the end of the GetInfo function that is located in the bas_API module.
Debug.Print UBound(Split((Msg), vbCrLf))

Load the userform and see the vbe immediate window output ... Do you get 7 before the RTE 9?

Excel Facts

What is =ROMAN(40) in Excel?
The Roman numeral for 40 is XL. Bill "MrExcel" Jelen's 40th book was called MrExcel XL.
Ok. I think I found the bug that produces the runtime error. It was in the GetInfo function. Now bug fixed.

Thanks johnnyL for reviewing the code and discovering the two bugs.

File Update:

Below, is the entire vbaproject correct code after having fixed the bugs:

Same RTE 9 error on the last 2 lines for the listbox values:

VBA Code:
            .List(20, 1) = arSSID(5&)   ' SSID named '2984' seems to cause the RTE 9  error on this line
            .List(21, 1) = arSSID(6&)

Strange! Add this line Debug.Print UBound(Split((Msg), vbCrLf)) at the end of the GetInfo function located in the bas_API module and see what output you get in the immediate window.

Edit:
Actually add this :
Debug.Print UBound(Split((Msg), vbCrLf))
Debug.Print Msg

When the first RTE 9 occurs on line:

            .List(21, 1) = arSSID(6&)

The Immediate window shows:

For the RTE 9 error on line:
VBA Code:
            .List(20, 1) = arSSID(5&)

Place this debug.Print before the line where the first error occurs: (in the userform UpdateListBox SUB)

VBA Code:
            .List(19, 1) = arSSID(4&)
            Debug.Print .List(19, 1)
            .List(20, 1) = arSSID(5&)
            .List(21, 1) = arSSID(6&)
What value do you get ?

Sorry, I missed your edited post above.

Here is the updated info:

For the RTE 9 on line:
VBA Code:
            .List(21, 1) = arSSID(6&)

The Immediate window shows:
5
