I would like to have a piece of Visual Basic code that every 5-10 minutes will scrape a number of pages from a website (Oddsfair) and paste them into an Excel spreasheet. The website's URL is www.oddsfair.net. The code will have to perform the following operations: - Select a date from the dropdown menu - Order the 'Total Matched 123' column from the highest number to the lowest - Scrape the first three pages (shown at the bottom of the page) - Repeat the same for the other 7 dates in the drop-down menu. If it's not possible to have the code in Visual Basic I'm open to other options, as long as the data is captured on Excel. Thank you very much.

Hi: I understand that you are looking for a scraper that can scrape the data from the website Oddsfair. I can create a scraper in Visual basic as well as Python. However, I would suggest to use Python because it is more adept language for scraping and provides better modules for this. Please note that I have more than 10 years of experience in scraping and have completed several similar projects, including websites like Oddsportal. Please review my profile to know more about my experience in this domain. I would be happy to connect with you to discuss your requirements in detail. Looking forward to working with you on this project.

First of all, I highly recommend Scrapy (Python framework), instead of visual basic, as it is a tool specifically designed to carry out this kind of tasks. Data can be exported in a excel, csv or even a SQL database. Regarding my cv, I have good experience scraping complex websites using this tool, even with dynamic content (Selenium can also be used). Let me know if you are interested and I will assess better the cost and time.

I have excellent experience in writing web crawlers. I checked website mentioned by you. I can write a crawler in Visual Basic 6.0 that will use web-browser control. Using the executable you will be able to generate data in excel. I will keep minute frequency as configurable. Initiate chat to discuss more about the project. More or less everything is clear, just need to know in which format do you want output (if you have a sample excel, that will be great).

I can write the code for this in Javascript, using PhantomJS. The code will run as a server and provide the output you desire. The output format will be csv, which can be opened in any windows/linux excel program.
