$30-100 USD

Paid on delivery
We need a program that will automate the "fetching" of data from a website. We have a table of IDs, and the site has a space where these IDs can be entered one at a time. Once entered, the site returns data related to the ID's. The data is embedded in a regular HTML web page, and we need some of this data extracted, placed in a database, and linked to the original ID. Some IDs will return a page listing multiple enteries. In these situations the program must select the top entry and continue. We are getting publicly available data from the site, but it would take us too long to do this manually (we have about 4,000 IDs we need to check). Once your bid is accepted I will provide more specific information on the site and the data we need. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) The programmer must use the program to fetch all of the requested data from the site, and provide this data to us in an Access database. 3) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 4) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law. Buyer will receive exclusive and complete copyrights to all work purchased. (No GPL, GNU, 3rd party components, etc. unless all copyright ramifications are explained AND AGREED TO by the buyer on the site per the coder's Seller Legal Agreement). ## Platform Windows
