Team can anyone guide me how to over come the error when web scraping is done with the VBA code.

I have attached the Macro file for your reference and the error code which I get is 'Invalid use of Null' which i marked as a comments in the code for your reference. Added html code in notepad.

Also please look into the code and make any necessary changes that i missed.

This code is used for scraping data from a web page. 

My apologies if haven't convoyed the message properly.

 

Thanks a lot

Hi Gold,

I think you should use Set Col1=IE.document.querySelectorAll(".wo-notes-num") instead of HTML.querySelectorAll(".wo-notes-num")

If you go to https://www.w3schools.com/Jsre.....rall_class and make the changes like in the image below, the query works.
