Hi Steve,

I think, some questions may stay without reply,
as a good helpful answer would be too complex or too long,
or there is no such answer,
and as most people here don't like to give short simple answers
which in the end don't help, they stay silent.

You may open a web-page directly in Word,
which may work or may not work,
and save it as Word-document.
Documents.Open FileName:="http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/"

But I wonder, why do you want to use VBA for this,
as one mouseclick in the favorites list would be enough.
Once you got to the page, there are a million ways to extract
information, but opposite to navigating to the page by VBA,
which is simple, but useless, extracting the information
you want, automatically, seems close to impossible.
Except you can think of a way, to define what is of interest to you.
So what stays, is doing it by hand.

For my part, as I couldn't think of a more useful answer,
I didn't answer at all.

Maybe there are more detailed problems left,
in which case it might be easier to help.
