Getting Stock names from a list of Stock symbols

Posted by: "HankD" HankDfrmSD@aol.com   hankdfrmsd

Tue Mar 13, 2012 11:19 am (PDT)



Does anyone know of an Excel macro that will take a list of stock symbols in one column, and go to the internet and download the corresponding company names, placing them in the next column?

=RCHGetElementNumber($A459,'Dummy Sheet for Numbers'!A$1)
This gives you company details and the description starts with the company
name.
The sheet I had had the company name (S&P 500) so did not require it..

Just use the RCHGetYahooQuotes() function with the "n" Yahoo code.

Use page that requires login?

Posted by: "Craig" craig.sander@comcast.net   c1sander

Tue Mar 13, 2012 12:54 pm (PDT)



Is there a way to pull from a web page that requires a login?

Specifically, I am trying to get (near) real time option quotes using "=RCHGetTableCell" from E-trade (as an example). If I go to the site in my browser and login, I get near real-time quotes. If I don't log-in I get delayed quotes. When using =RCHGetTableCell in Excel, it always gives me the delayed quotes – even if I am concurrently logged in through my browser.

Thanks for any help.
Craig

You need to log in with either the EXCEL Web Query dialog, or with IE.
Because EXCEL and the add-in use the MicroSoft Internet engine. So only IE
cookies and Temporary Internet Files are being used. Logging in with
something like FireFox won't do the trick, because it maintains its own
cookies.

I tried logging in from IE. This didn't work. It still gave me delayed quotes.

Did you run the smfForceRecalculation macro? It would still be extracting
data from the originally retrieved web page (i.e. PRE-log in) unless you
told the add-in to get a new copy of the web page AFTER the log in.

Also, you might need to change your Internet Options, to make sure IE is
always getting new content. See the new smfForceRecalculation items in the
"Links" area of the group for more information.

Hi Craig ... I have tried it too .... it doesn't seem to work for me even if I use IE browser and do the log in ... I have sort of given up .... If you can get it to work, I would appreciate knowing the process ... I am not as computer savvy as you seem to be ...

RCHGetTableCell WSJ Global Government Bond Data

Posted by: "d.sweitzer22" d.sweitzer22@yahoo.com   d.sweitzer22

Tue Mar 13, 2012 1:08 pm (PDT)



Hi I am trying to use the RCHGetTableCell command to pull in global bond data from the Wall Street Journal http://online.wsj.com/mdc/public/page/2_3022-govtbonds.html?
I am trying to get the German 10 yr yield so I tried: =RCHGetTableCell("http://online.wsj.com/mdc/public/page/2_3022-govtbonds.html?",2,"Germany",2 )
where the cell I want is two columns over and 2 rows down. For some reason it returns the the 3rd column over on the same row. I don't know html so I am struggling. Please help! Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Right track, but wrong parameter values. Try:

=RCHGetTableCell("
http://online.wsj.com/mdc/public/page/2_3022-govtbonds.html",4,"Germany",,,,2
)

You need to have placeholders for the empty parameters before you enter the
pRows parameter.

I use the following code to get a 10 year bund yield:

=VALUE(smfGetTagContent("http://www.fixedincomeinvestor.co.uk/x/bondtable.html?groupid=8","td",3,">EUR"))

This code brings in the date of the yield information as a check.

=smfGetTagContent("http://www.fixedincomeinvestor.co.uk/x/bondtable.html?groupid=8","td",1,">EUR")

Help on downloading options data

Hi all,

I tried to download stock options data by using =smfGetOptionQuotes("SPY Jun 2010 $100 Call,SPY Jun 2010 $110 Call","zba",1) copy paste from the example in documentation folder online.

It gave "error" in the data cells. The title cells are working fine. It also works fine to download stock data by using function like =RCHGetYahooQuotes("IBM").

Anyone can kindly help?

Thank you,

Rachel

The examples are two years old. Try changing the years to 2012 and they
should work.

It appears Reuters no longer carries them. MSN seems to -- check out this
