Hi Ryan, I'm home on another Friday vacation day working on my beta WINs project which I'm hoping finally to release by the end this month. I'm interested in your attempts and realize the efforts and work that goes into it from a first hand basis. I came across a program that is quite interesting. Like Ox said in his reply, a programmer would "parse" the data from an html screen. Well, there is a product called an HTML Analyzer 2.0 which is shareware at vista.ru. The utility works fine by the written instructions are weak! The fellow has great programming skills but he can't teach. Someone, needs to rewrite his docs into plain English for people like me. I have been buying my data feeds and recently Doug Webb and I have been brain storming some goodies for you folks. Good luck!
