Please help
I am an absolute newbie to VBA programming, and searched on the internet found some goodie which could help automate my job.

Here are 2 problems I encountered.
1) I could input the Hong Kong into the form, but the problem is that I have to choose from the dropdown list. Simply putting .value Hong Kong is not possible.
2) Getting the data from the page, error 91.

Please helpppppp.

Thanks.
