disabled macros

Everytime I open my excel worksheet, I have to enable macros because the computer doesn't recognize the smf worksheet as a secure source of information. And, that if I do enable this data, I could possibly allowing some viruses to access my computer.

Now, I know this is a safe source but, how do I get my computer to accept this worksheet so I don't have to bother with this annoying error message.

Thanks, David

You shouldn't need to enable macros. When an add-in is installed, all of its
macros are automatically enabled. It really HAS to be security approved once
installed. Otherwise, if you opened up a new workbook, and then added a
formula, you'd get a security message.

Have you checked to make sure your EXCEL workbook doesn't have its own
macros? Even if it has an empty module, you'd still get the message.

You can also use the ISERROR formula...

Just retrieve the raw data in one row.

Then, in the next row, you'll need IF() statements to verify that what you're getting back is usable or not. For example, you might do:

=IF(D10="N/A",0,D10/10)

...so that you'll substitute a zero value instead of the "N/A". Then you just use the new row for your calculations, where the new row is either a copy of the "work" row, or a modified version that has the values you want to substitute if you're not getting something usable back.

Or, another example -- I do recall that one of the "edits" of the Rule #1 workbooks from the forum wanted to make sure that a P/E ratio wasn't so outrageous that it would skew the calculation. So, the raw P/E values were retrieved in the "work" row. In the row used for calculations, a max value of 50 was placed on it. That way, a P/E of 300 for one year wouldn't throw everything off-kilter. You could use whatever edit(s) you feel comfortable with.

And, as I noted, some of the "N/A" values for P/E might be because earnings were negative for that year, or for some year of a 5-year average. The question would be if you returned the P/E for 5 consecutive years and one was "N/A", what would you assign for the 5-year average.

Basically, a "work" range is just a way for you to edit the data, either for reasonableness or for actual value.

Can you give an example? Because I'm not used to working with excel and can't figure it out in my head.

Thanks.

Finviz Earnings Date

Hi,

When I use this code I don't get the title "Earnings" from the Finviz table for GE (http://www.finviz.com/quote.ashx?t=ge)

=RCHGetTableCell("http://finviz.com/quote.ashx?t="&"GE",""&5,"fullview-ticker",,,,""&15)

I get the long string:
BMO = Before Market Open<br>AMC = After Market Close] offsetx=[10] offsety=[20] delay=[300]

How do I skip over that to get to "Earnings"?

Sorry, you can't. The add-in parser isn't designed to handle their variation
of HTML.

It should be a fixed string -- why bother extracting it?

Have you tried just using the Finviz screener output instead of extracting
the data from the web page? For example:

=smfGetCSVFile("http://finviz.com/export.ashx?v=151&t=GE&c=1,68")

There an item in the "Links" area of the group with more detail on the
process.

Hi Randy,

Just playing around learning the various functions. I will have a look at the function you suggest.

Thanks,
Monk

Monk,

I use 

=RCHGetTableCell("http://www.finviz.com/quote.ashx?t="&ticker,1,">Earnings")

to get the finviz earnings data and it seems to work fine. 

Fred

Thanks, that worked.
Don't know how or why just yet, but it works.
