i need to write a code that will download an excel file from a website every time it is ran. what im trying to do is automatically import real time electricity rates into excel. im a beginner in programing and am seeking help for my senior design project.

Thank you

Can you please post the code you have so far?

You may have to be more specific in your questions (are you even asking anything here?) "java coding" is perhapse the most general thing you could have come up with for a forum on Java!

I take it you dont know where to start?

google provides you with plenty of material to give it a go, then come back with specific questions (if you need to!)
