Thanks! All is well.

Hi Randy,

Will your program work for finding stocks with dividends that we were talking about on the other newsgroup? Can you also tell me what I can do with your program. Thanks

Well, it's not really intended for scanning, but for retrieving ad hoc data
on a small set of stocks. That's why I was stressing using a screener like
Zacks to first get down to that small set of stocks, where you can then get
more detailed information on them. Information that WASN'T available in the
screening tool. In this case, both declared ex-dividend date and an
estimate of the next ex-dividend date based on when the stock went
ex-dividend last year.

The add-in itself is primarily a collection of user-defined functions that
can take data off of the Internet and put it into EXCEL cells. Similar to
an EXCEL Web Query, but with more flexibility and precision.

For example, when I was looking to see what the ex-dividend date of a stock
was from the previous year, I was using a formula that looked like this:

=RCHGetYahooHistory(rTicker,YEAR(rBegDate)-1,MONTH(rBegDate),DAY(rBegDate),
YEAR(rEndDate)-1,MONTH(rEndDate),DAY(rEndDate),"v",,0)

...which works on these yellow-shaded cells and returns the dividend date,
if any, from the previous year, that would be between the two specified
dates:

BegDate EndDate *Ticker* *Prev Ex-Div* 2013-03-26 2013-04-20 FCX
2012-04-11
The last declared ex-dividend date is retrieved with:

=DATEVALUE(smfGetTagContent("
http://research.tdameritrade.com/public/stocks/overview/overview.asp?symbol=
"&rTicker,"div",1,">Ex-Dividend&quot;))

...and so forth and so on.

It can't retrieve data from every web page, but it can access almost any
web page the EXCEL web query process can go after -- because both processes
use the Microsoft Window libraries for Internet web page retrieval.
