Copy and paste something from one place to another place

Post by kongen » Wed Jan 26, 2011 10:58 pm

Hey,

i've been trying for a few hours now and I can't seem to figure out how I can do this.

What I want to do is;

Copy something from one website to another website.

Let's take this for an example;

I want to copy the first article on http://vg.no and I want to post it on a forum. I have to copy all the text (+ the title) into the new form and the forum.

The first article on this website is changing all the time and I want it to keep copying it, but as far as I know, this tool is only copying the text so it gives me some errors when I try to play the macro. Somehow I need it to copy something in a range and then post it on the forum. It's more like an auto-leecher.

Hope you understand. If you don't, i'll try to post something else that might help you understanding

Thanks in advance.

You say you want the first article. Which article? The first one listed in the window on the right under Tips VG?
