No Randy, I was referring to the Quote.....to get all of the attributes of the mutual fund.
I just got a mass of text with no data.

I gave you an example of how to get beta, then you asked about the mutual
fund summary.

I am totally confused right now.

No Randy...I wanted the array of attributes for the particular mutual fund.
See attachment.
Prev Close, Net Assets, YTD return, Expense Ratio, Yield.....etc.

I believe this is only possible by making the call to the function symbol by symbol.....
I don't think multiple symbols are supported...in a single call.

I am installing the new version right now.....
I wish you had prefixed your MODULE NAMES with "smf" or "RCH".... as I have over a dozen modules in my VBA project.
It was very tedious to identify each and every one of your modules vs. my own modules !!!
Now I have to remove all of the Excel dependencies.....

You should employe a compiler variable to handle this problem:
#IF AppMode="Excel" then
Do this for Excel
#Else
Do this for Access
#EndIF

​That's why I gave you an example of extracting the Beta. You'll need to do
something similar for the other items.​

​Yes. You'll have to build the URL for each call, doing a string
concatenation of the ticker symbol where needed.​

​I started out with RCH, because I was writing stuff for my own use, and
people asked me to share. That was in the xlTraders Yahoo group. When I
moved to my own group, I called it SMF, and any new functions started with
SMF. Unfortunately, I couldn't rename all of the old functions as
everything that was already using them would have had major problems
converting all their workbooks to the new formula prefix.

It's not like I planned it that way. :)​

Oh, wait, you're talking about module names. Not function names or macro
names. The module names have never been that kind of issue for me. They're
all in their own VBA project,

I'm basically sharing stuff I wrote for my own use.​ I don't use Access.
Besides, I don't want people to abuse the free services and build databases
of data. I hope that's not what you're doing. One big reason I wrote the
add-in is so that I wouldn't HAVE to build databases. The collection of
data on the Internet is my database.

I made a concession to use the compiler variable for Mac usage.

Please excuse my wasting your time; I see it's in the Options in Excel.

I don't see the "Trusted" option in the Properties for any of the worksheets. I am using Window 7, Excel 2010.

Randy:

Adding the Trusted Location works perfectly. Maybe add that step to the installation instructions.

Thank for everything you do.

Randy,


Not sure you can answer this but I thought I'd ask - Zacks stock screener data and their website data seem to be different for a stock. For example, if you look at the stock ASH, the stock screener data says 5 out of 5 brokers recommend a strong buy but if you look at their website (field 13873) it says HOLD. There are several stocks like this that seemed to be disconnected. Any idea of why?

Element 13873 is the Zack's recommendation, not a broker recommendation. I
have it as a SELL right now:

https://www.zacks.com/stock/quote/ASH

Upper right hand corner shows the Zacks rank and recommendation: "4-Sell"

Sounds like what you're after is the current average broker recommendation
(i.e. ABR) from here;

https://www.zacks.com/stock/research/ASH/brokerage-recommendations

That's element #13885. Note the "4-Sell" Zacks rating and recommendation on
that page as well.

Or are you not asking about the element values being returned, but why
Zack's and the brokers differ? If so, one big difference could be
timeliness. I don't know how old each of the brokers' recommendations are.
It's not like they update them every day, while the Zack's
rating/recommendation might be. There was a big drop in price about a month
ago. Maybe that caused the big departure, because of the way Zack's
constructs their rating. ASH also released earning just a few weeks ago...
