You can keep sheet data latest automatically through the web query.
It's very useful to access daily or hourly changed web pages.
But Excel web query doesn't make sense when the web page needs some
authentication. Open source solutions are expected so much.

My plugin doesn't do it and just as similar as copy & paste, but
a good step to go.
