Group,

Has anyone tried to use the _javascript_ or VisBasic interpreters to
grab data from the CNBC Stock Scouter website?

I am interested in creating a ASCII list of:

<company full name><ticker><rating>

I can do the programming - I am just interested in finding out if
anyone has tried anything similar.  This is often referred to as
"screen scraping"

Here is a screen scraper for Python. I have not used it but have written my own in Python for various websites. It is easy to do.

Check out the examples for sample code.
