I'm trying to create a VB script to Navigate to a Website, SelectAll, Copy and then save the copied data from the clipboard to a text file, but I'm stuck! :(
Here is what I got so far:
With CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
.Navigate "https://www.microsoft.com"
Do Until .ReadyState = 4: Wscript.Sleep 100: Loop
.Visible = true
With .Document
.execCommand "SelectAll"
.execCommand "Copy"
End With ' Document
You can try to get text data directly from DOM
With CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
.Visible = True
.Navigate "https://www.microsoft.com"
Do Until .ReadyState = 4
Wscript.Sleep 100
Loop
For Each Tag In .Document.GetElementsByTagName("script")
Tag.OuterHtml = ""
Next
For Each Tag In .Document.GetElementsByTagName("noscript")
Tag.OuterHtml = ""
Next
Content = .Document.GetElementsByTagName("body")(0).InnerText
Do While InStr(Content, vbCrLf & vbCrLf)
Content = Replace(Content, vbCrLf & vbCrLf, vbCrLf)
Loop
ShowInNotepad Content
.Quit
End With
Sub ShowInNotepad(Content)
With CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
TempPath = CreateObject("WScript.Shell").ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%TEMP%") & "\" & .GetTempName
With .CreateTextFile(TempPath, True, True)
.WriteLine (Content)
.Close
End With
CreateObject("WScript.Shell").Run "notepad.exe " & TempPath, 1, True
.DeleteFile (TempPath)
End With
End Sub
