You're welcome.  One thought popped into my mind.  Since the site
seems to be from the Wall Street Journal, you may want to look into
whether they have an api for searching and retrieving articles.  If
they do, this would be simpler and probably safer than parsing web
pages.  From time to time, websites change their layout, which would
probably break your program.  However APIs are more stable

good luck to you
