In a moment of clarity, I realized that my Weather Warnings macro was almost a general-purpose RSS scraper. This is a version tuned for grabbing headlines from CNN and putting them in a Global Variable (HEADLINES).

Create the GV and import the SQL.

I now need to determine how often to run this to update them...

Hey that is nice, now we're on the subject:

Does the weather macro still work for you? I think they have changed the site... but that is besides the point.
I am looking forward to seeing more like this from you....

Peter,

Yes, the weather macro still works. I'm guessing yours does not? Send me the saved page again if so.
