vba code / stock historical price macro ?

  • sorry i may have got the wording wrong (im a beginner) but im looking for help with this one function i need for a school project on historical stock prices in excel.....basically i need a way to perform this function:


    in row 1, i have 30 RANDOM historical dates, starting in B1 and going right


    in column A, i have 10 stock symbols, starting in A2 and going down


    Is there a way to automatically grab the ADJUSTED CLOSING PRICE for each symbol for each corresponding date?? if not i have to do it manually!!


    Your help in this matter is much appreciated!!!!

    Hi and welcome to the forum.


    As this is a school project I take it that you have been given some guidance on how to proceed. What were you told? What initial ideas do you have (other than ask on a forum to get somebody else to do the project for you! ;) )


    Might also be useful if you indicate which exchange these stocks are quoted on.
