Alternatively you could just use HYPTUSS as is. ;)
Thanks mc2fool. I tried but not able to go past the code error issue. Could you suggest?
I take it you didn't just use HYPTUSS as is, nor my "even easier way" suggestion but rather tried copying the code into your own spreadsheet...

Set html = New HTMLDocument ' New MSHTML.HTMLDocument
You don't say what the actual error you get is, but my guess is that you're missing the object library reference for the HTML object; maybe others too.

Go into the VBA Editor in both HYPTUSS and your spreadsheet and select menu item Tools->References and make sure the same libraries are ticked in yours as in HYPTUSS.

I've imported the VBA code for the OEIC element into my own tracker spreadsheet and it works a treat. Very slick, thank you! If I wanted to import other data from the FT tearsheet for each OEIC I hold (e.g. top 10 holdings, today's change %age, and performance over 3, 12 and 36 months), can that be done?

Many thanks!

In principle, yes, but I have found that some data in the FT web pages is presented in image form rather than HTML text and so cannot be extracted
