When creating or replying to a post, do the following:

1. paste your VBA code into the text area
2. highlight (select) the code
3. click the # button
The button is found just above the text area where you write your question. This will automatically wrap the [CODE] tags around the selected code.

VBA tags make your code appear in your thread in the same way that you see it in your code pane in the Visual Basic Editor (VBE) window, thus making it far easier for others to read.

As an alternative, you may surround your code manually by writing "[ CODE ]" before your code, and "[ /CODE ]" after the code sample.


Please only post the relevant section(s) of your code. Don't post 50 lines of code if you only need help debugging one variable. Create a test case to demonstrate an issue.

Wrapping code...

Sub test()

Dim ie As New SHDocVw.InternetExplorer
Dim htmldoc As MSHTML.HTMLDocument
Dim htmlin As MSHTML.IHTMLElement

ie.Visible = True
ie.navigate "https://example.com"

Do While ie.readyState <> READYSTATE_COMPLETE
Loop

Set htmldoc = ie.document
Set htmlin = htmldoc.getElementById("FromDate")
htmlin.Value = Range("A1")


Set htmlin = htmldoc.getElementById("ToDate")
htmlin.Click
htmlin.Value = Range("A2")

Set htmlin = htmldoc.getElementById("Refreshdata")
htmlin.Click

Do While ie.readyState <> READYSTATE_COMPLETE
Loop

Set htmlin = htmldoc.getElementById("Download_Raw")
htmlin.Click

End sub

i understand export button on the intranet just downloads the file to some folder.
what is the folder and name of the downloaded file?

when you hit the "export" button multiple times, is the file downloaded into the same folder with the same name?

if this is the case, insert a few lines to your code in order to open, copy data from and close this "known" file.
