Hi Jeffrey, this work is amazing, thanks so much for posting. As an amateur bettor I want to analyze data, but it's so hard to find historical information.

I successfully pulled the MLB, NHL, and NBA data through the Excel docs you posted, but I can't get the NFL one to work. It looks like it's pulling the data from Covers, but then it doesn't show up in the next tab. Any idea why it's not working for the NFL one?

Thanks! Josh jdwheeling@gmail.com

Sorry for the delay. I wish I could tell you why it's not working, but considering the VBA code is identical I couldn't tell you why the NFL one isn't working off the top of my head. I didn't write them, but instead downloaded them from elsewhere. Sorry.

I can't guarantee any time in the next month or so but once I have a little more spare time I'll look into it a bit more.

No worries, thanks for replying and for posting it here. Any ideas on how to track down the original creator of this doc or someone who could diagnose it? If you eventually figure it out that would be awesome, it'd be an amazing resource.
