Thanks for the 'Heads up' on the 64K issue.
I've been playing at getting the result pre-formatted so I can put it in an array so I 
can search for a part number and then I'll know the price and shipping!
Think I got it.
Sure is a lot of work deleting leading and trailing data (The HTML report I'm getting 
has the information in the second of 3 tables of the page).  In .asp you can 
specify X number of places to delete, here I have to find some unique text, count 
how many places, count the total places and subtract (which is handy in many 
cases.  But I 'know' the top table and bottom table are fixed size.)
Still easy stuff though.
