Description:	I need someone to build a script that will take information from a financial website (briefing.com. I will provide passowrd) and based on symbols and dates in Excel will copy and paste certain news articles into a word document. For instance, if the Excel spreadsheet says GSIC 2/7/2005, the script will have to find the news articles with the words GSIC on 2/7/2005, and paste it into a word document. It will also have to go and check news articles that have been written on GSIC for a few days prior to 2/7/2005, and paste those into the word document. Preferably the script/applet will run locally on my Windows box rather than being mounted at an ISP etc. Simple program. Additional information submitted: 02/23/2006 at 3:28 EST: There is also one more very important item. That is, that if, for instance, the script has pasted a news article into word, for, say, 12/7/2005, and the next article was, say, on 12/11/2005, i want the script to mark those days in between with a notation. Since the stock market is not open on American holidays and weekends, i want to be able to know what those days in between are. So going back to our example. If 12/7/2005 is a Friday so on the line after the news article there should be a line saying 12/8/2005 stock market closed, and the next line saying 12/9/2005 stock market closed, and the next line saying 12/10/2005 stock market OPEN, and then on the next line would be the news article for 12/11/2005.
