Why using MouseMove? I would use HTTPRequest to get the source of the page to a variable and then parse it. Then it happens transparently.

Or use WebRecorder. Or you could have the script open the URL in your default browser using ExecuteFile>URL and then send a CTRL+A and CTRL+C to the window to select all and copy to the clipboard. Then use GetClipBoard to get to a variable and then parse.

I didn't explain the issue well. I have a daily webpage that contains links and corresponding text next to the links. I need to read the text next to the links because each link means something different. I want to have MS open the links and download each link to a separate file.csv based upon the text next to the links.

It's a secure and proprietary webpage.

Can you post an edited example of the html code for a link? (I assume they are all similar.)
