Walt,

I use PERL. AFAIK it is the ultimate language for text file
(including HTML) processing.  Full 'regular expressions',
splitting/parsing are routine in PERL.  And it is freeware on windows
as well.

However, please do post the VB (and C#) code.  Perhaps in future I
can use it somewhere ...

BTW, if you want all (or most) of the UNIX utilities (grep / awk /
sort / sed / make / cut) in DOS, surf to 'http://cygwin.com'. Cygwin
utilities are freeware.

In the automation it will be nice to have one single script that will
do all the data-download, data-processing, AmiBroker invoke and
automated 'Guru' ...

Regards,
- Salil V Gangal
