URL in cell used in VBA code to import web data

[amit96]

Hi everybody,
I am extracting stock information from yahoo site in VBA code.
I want the URL from which the information will be taken to be in accordance with cell C5.
That is, the URL that is in cell C5 is the address from which the information will be taken to Excel.

- Now it looks like this -

With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add (Connection: = _
"URL; https: //finance.yahoo.com/quote/TSLA/financials? P = TSLA", Destination: = _
Range ("$ A $ 6"))
.Name = "financials? P = TSLA"
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
.BackgroundQuery = True
.RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells
.SavePassword = False
.SaveData = True
.AdjustColumnWidth = True
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.WebSelectionType = xlEntirePage
.WebFormatting = xlWebFormattingNone
.WebPreFormattedTextToColumns = True
.WebConsecutiveDelimitersAsOne = True
.WebSingleBlockTextImport = False
.WebDisableDateRecognition = False
.WebDisableRedirections = False
.Refresh BackgroundQuery: = False


The URL is now fixed. I want to change it according to the value of cell C5.

I would be happy for your help please

"Not working" as a response does not help your situation.

Post what the code looks like with your changes.

Make sure you also post a working example of what the code looks like when you have the address hard coded into the code. I assume you have a working example that you now want to use the value from C5 instead.

NOT WORKING - Application.CutCopyMode = False
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"Range("C5").value", Destination:= _
Range("$A$6"))

Without quotes also does not work.

It appears that URL that you are trying to use is not valid.

Would you like to try using Tesla, Inc. (TSLA) Income Statement - Yahoo Finance
