I am getting error code 91 on the line

Code:
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Value = holdingsClass(0).textContent

Any reason please? Thanks.

Code:
Sub Pull_Data()


Dim IE As InternetExplorer
Dim html As HTMLDocument


Set IE = New InternetExplorer
IE.Visible = False
IE.navigate "http://greyhoundbet.racingpost.com/#meeting-list/view=time&r_date=2018-02-16"


'Wait until IE is done loading page
Do While IE.readyState <> READYSTATE_COMPLETE
DoEvents
Loop


'Get Data
Set html = IE.document
Set holdingsClass = html.getElementsByClassName("appList raceList raceListTime")
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Value = holdingsClass(0).textContent


'Quit and clean
IE.Quit
Set IE = Nothing


End Sub

Hello James,

I think you misunderstood what this HTML function does...
Code:
Set holdingsClass = html.getElementsByClassName("appList raceList raceListTime")

This function does not take an array of arguments, rather it returns an array of all HTML elements that have a single Class name.
Code:
Set holdingsClass = html.getElementsByClassName("appList")

Thanks, I am really a newbie at pulling data via HTML, is there any literature on this please?

Hello James,

There is an excellent site I have used a lot and have bookmarked W3Schools They have examples, references, and tutorials available for HTML, CSS, JavaScript, SQL, and some other languages.

HEllo James,

Sorry, you did ask about pulling HTML data using VBA. I personally don't know of any sites that provide tutorials how to do this using VBA. Others here might know and post some links for you.
