Its fairly clear I have no idea what I'm doing!
With previous help, I've managed to get the Username and Date of Birth fields to populate, but not matter what I try I cant get the Continue button to click. Worryingly, I've got another field to populate once i get the Continue button pressed! To not confuse the issue, I've removed all the attempts to hit the continue button from the code.

VBA Code:
Sub HL()

Dim HTMLDoc As HTMLDocument
Dim MyBrowser As InternetExplorer
Dim MyHTML_Element As IHTMLElement
Dim MyURL As String

MyURL = "https://online.hl.co.uk/my-accounts/login-step-one"

Set MyBrowser = New InternetExplorer
MyBrowser.Silent = True
MyBrowser.navigate MyURL
MyBrowser.Visible = True
Do
Loop Until MyBrowser.readyState = READYSTATE_COMPLETE
Set HTMLDoc = MyBrowser.document
HTMLDoc.all.UserName.Value = "myusername"
HTMLDoc.all.Item("date-of-birth").Value = "010101"

End Sub

Remove leading & trailing spaces
Save as CSV to remove all leading and trailing spaces. It is faster than using TRIM().
