Hi ,
would some of those that collect the qld ratings in a database help me with the last 2 months? I dont need the results or anything else just the date, track race num tab num and the rating. I can and do collect them now but I dont know how to do it backwards and I only need last 2 months 21/9 to 22/11.
I would greatly appreciate any assistance

Hi Michal,
If this is what you want?
Open Qld tab,
Click on racing, click on racing again, top left corner
Click on results & search, there you can get any date of the past races.

Michal, how do you currently collect that data? if you are using 'web query' then it is possible to access past dates

On a similiar topic, are there any good programs to look out for, for scraping data off websites? Its something I have no experience with, but could be interested in getting into for database building.

Stugots,
Im using a VB.net program and not excel, I just store it there. Unfortunately I have never looed at web scraping. Perhaps its time I did, all Im trying to do is save a bit of time. :)
