faster, better daily market updates using Excel VBA (code included)

I wanted to share a tool I use to stay up to date with the markets with all the other monkeys out there looking for a job especially in S&T. I use a pretty cool excel sheet to get my daily market updates without having to surf through the web/click back and forth between different websites. Its such a hassle and I cannot analyze the data the way I want but with this sheet its easy. I made one to grab historical data and create graphs. I'm also trying to make one to grab options chains. If anyone knows how to do that feel free to pm me I would appreciate any insight.

Edit: WSO is not supporting my .xml file so I have made a .xls version. To make it work open the VB editor in the excel sheet, create a new module, and paste the code from the word doc.

Edit: yes I did base my code in the first "daily updates" sheet off a sheet i found online I am not trying to rip it off I also make my own as i have evidence with the historical data grab.

The macros are identical...

vbamonkey you might want to not pawn off public sheets as yours by changing the formatting to get a job
