How do I import an RSS feed into Microsoft Excel ? For e.g. I would like to show a daily quote in the Excel file, which is pulled from an external RSS feed URL.
Appreciate your help, thanks!

As of now, I export my Google documents by getting the content from this link:
https://docs.google.com/feeds/download/documents/export/Exportid=DOCUMENT_ID&exportFormat=EXPORT_FORMAT
This works fine, in fact I export my doc to an HTML format then I read from it, but there is no way to know when a page starts or ends.
Here's all the export formats I know of:
HTML, PDF, ODT, TXT, RTF and DOCX
PDF, ODT, RTF and DOCX all indicate separate pages when opened in a renderer. However, after searching for countless APIs for all formats (python-docx, PyPDF4, PyRTF etc), I have not been able to find a working way to read a Google document page by page.
Any suggestions?
You could use Apps Script with it you can take advantage of the DocumentApp where you can get PageBreaks.
You could then serve your tailored content as a web app.
I send a pdf file to some customers. I want to know witch are opened my file. My dream will be to have a http request post inside the pdf to my server. But i search on some website without result.
Someone know if it's possible? And how i could do that?
Thanks a lot in advance
Instead of sending the PDF file, you might want to send a link (unique to each recipient) where the PDF can be downloaded. This link can log which of the recipients has downloaded the PDF.
This will be easier to set up and your results will be more trustworthy.
I have a very special question concerning MS-Outlook and MS-Access VBA. I want to import the email data from outlook into a database (and the file system > attachments and embedded images). Using Google I find ways to get the emails incl. emails properties and the attachments. But I need images too which are embedded in rich text- and html-emails. Is there a way to realize this via VBA?
Thanks in advance.

Embedded HTML images are just regular image attachments and can be saved using Attachment.SaveAsFile.
Embedded RTF images are a different story: they are OLE objects, and Attachment.SaveAsFile will fail. You can use Redemption (I am its author) for that - its RDOAttachment.SaveAsFile will extract WMF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF, etc. attachments from the attachment OLE storage and save them as files.
i have a website which i want to monitor, and i have create a script that convert information i need in that website into a rss feed file. i want firefox to add this file as live bookmark. when type the location of the rss feed file, firefox does not display as usual rss feed. how to make firefox display it as i want ? sorry for my bad english.
update: after googling, i wonder if it's due to content-type header ? but i don't know how to set content-type of local file in firefox-addons :-(
I have a website that displays product information that the client wishes to offer as pdf format. I need a way to dynamically convert a particular HTML page into a PDF, does anybody know of a way to do this? I need to convert an html page into a PDF document and serve it to the end user on the fly (there are WAY too many products to do this manually and these products receive updates regularly so a manual approach is out of the question)
EDIT: I forgot to mention that I need this to use either vb.net or c#.net
Have you tried iTextSharp?
