Hello there,

I have a basic knowledge of VBA but webscraping, javascript etc is completely new for me.
I have been trying to figure out how to extract (3) tables from the following url: Export Fundamental Data U.S. and International Stocks - QuickFS.net
Through a dropdown I need to get to the Incomestatement, Balance sheet and Cashflow Statement
When I inspect the elements I think below html / javascript statement (s) is the key.

Income Statement <table class="fs-table" id="is-table">
Balance Sheet <table class="fs-table" id="bs-table">
Cashflow Statement <table class="fs-table" id="cf-table">

The table class remains the same whilst the id refers to the different statements

I managed some code to access the Income Statement, but I can not figure out how to get to the others

I would really appreciate if anybody can help me out here
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sub GetQuickfs()
Dim IE As New InternetExplorer, html As HTMLDocument
Dim elem As Object, data As String
webaddress = "Export Fundamental Data U.S. and International Stocks - QuickFS.net"

With IE
.Visible = False
.navigate webaddress
Do While .readyState <> READYSTATE_COMPLETE: Loop
Set html = .document
End With

For Each elem In html.getElementsByClassName("fs-table")(0).getElementsByTagName("td")

data = elem.innerText
Debug.Print data
Next elem
IE.Quit
End Sub

Best way to learn Power Query?
Read M is for (Data) Monkey book by Ken Puls and Miguel Escobar. It is the complete guide to Power Query.
Try getElementById, for example:
VBA Code:
    Dim table As HTMLTable, tRow As HTMLTableRow, tCell As HTMLTableCell
    Set table = html.getElementById("is-table")
    Debug.Print table.innerText
    For Each tRow In table.Rows
        For Each tCell In tRow.Cells
            Debug.Print tCell.innerText; " ";
        Next
        Debug.Print
    Next

Thanks for your response, I tried your code but the table object is empty

By 'empty' do you mean Nothing?

Try replacing the Set table line with:
VBA Code:
    Do
        Set table = HTMLdoc.getElementById("is-table")
        DoEvents
    Loop While table Is Nothing
