title: VBA WinHttp component
body: <p>Here is an issue regarding VBA.</p>
  
  <p>I've scoured my books and searched the web for the answer on this piece of code</p>
  
  <pre><code>Set WinHttpReq = CreateObject("WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>so I've tried countless times to search Google with: WinHttp Object VBA and here some links I visited numbered for you ease</p>
  
  <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/jQ849.png" alt="search and visited links"></p>
  
  <p>On number <strong>1</strong> I saw that is called WinHttp reference as you can see that on the red ink on the picture and also that is does not mention VBA as a language on help seen in the blue ink</p>
  
  <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/ywd1T.png" alt="site visited"></p>
  
  <p>On number <strong>2</strong> there are no information regarding the WinHttp component it has there the WinHttpRequest Object check red ink please.</p>

  <p>I have tried to find it explicitly as <strong>WinHttpRequest.5.1</strong> what is the difference? I have tried to find it as 5.1 but to no avail. Also I was very disheartened to find that if I enter the Object browser in VBE and I search WinHttp I find out the WinHttpRequest there as a property!</p>

  <p>Also do do I have to activate a relevant library from tools references?</p>
  
  <p>It's no secret that I want to pull XML data for financial modeling and I must understand such concepts I've searched other answers and they ask on more advance issues.</p>
  
  <p>Finally can you point me towards a material that writes about VBA-XML interaction a little noob-friendly please.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Thanks for watching my question</strong> </p>
