Hi Andrew, Thanks for this informative video. Can you please upload video on saving files via file dialog pop-up that come up once file is downloaded.

Hi Sir, I have Basic SQL knowledge like "SELECT", "WHERE", "GROUP BY", "HAVING", Sub Queries, Joins and so on. But, one of my friends suggested me to learn "Index", "Triggers", "Loops" and "SSIS + SSAS + SSRS". Sir, will you kindly make a video on why we should learn "What are Index, Triggers, Loops, SSAS, SSIS and SSRS?" What are they used for? What is the difference among them? Is basic knowledge not enough to work in SQL? How do they help in our day to day activities? Please, make a video on this.

Hi Andrew, I really like your videos. However, i am having some problems with my web scraping because the website sometimes changes the xpaths from which i find my elements. Now i have the idea to find a text that i expect to be present on the website (without me knowing the actual xpath) and then getting the xpath from the element. However, i cannot find a function that does something like "foundelement.xpath". Do you know how i can get the xpath from an element automatically using vba selenium?

Hi Andrew, I have a python code that works:
how can I convert this into VBA version? How do I have to “count” the number of parents (it’s quite a complex DOM)?
