And by the way, what happens when you run that query manually, without VBA? Because after all you're trying to get VBA to to automatically what you can already do by hand, right? So how well does it work when you do it by hand?
I never runned it; I thought there were more steps to it. Now I went back into the file and saw that the formula of L4 was now in K4. I thought the problem of the brackets was fixed, but it's not.

My mistake... sorry :/

I wrote to the support team of Metacritic, but I haven't received any replies unfortunatly...

The error I get is "Invalid web query".

Also, when I do it manually, I don't do it with a query, I copy paste each page individually and make some removal of data manually (it takes quite a while).
