Has anyone automated the importing of Fedex tracking numbers before?
How did you do it?

Where would you be importing them from? Once they are in Access, it is
relatively easy to get to the website, just by adding them to the URL
string. Here's one for UPS tracking:

"http://wwwapps.ups.com/etracking/tr...quiryNumber=T&HTMLVersion=4.0&InquiryNumber1="
& txtUPS

Where txtUPS is the tracking number. I usually copy and paste the tracking
number from an email. If the structure of FedEX is like that of UPS, you
could probably ready the emails looking for an 18 digit number:

Len("the string")=18

where the second letter is "Z"

Mid("the string",2,1) = "Z"
