accessing information from internet

I have saved a few (stock symbol).csv historical stock prices files from the Yahoo financial web page. I am accessing this data for graphing and analysis with labview. I'd like to add an updata button on my vi such that all the files in the data directory would be updated from the Yahoo financial web page.
 
I have a few years of experience with labview for hardware interfacing and analysis but not so much with communication (except datasockets) and have no experience with html coding. can anyone direct me as to the easiest way to this, or where to start. an example code would also be very nice...
 
many thanks
Sam

i've found a way by using data sockets! of course a [text] string needs to be added to the url.

however I'm still interested to know if there are any other easy ways!

 

Thanks
