Function

Doing further research, I came across Robert Knight's comment on this question VBA Shell function in Office 2011 for Mac and built an HTTPGet function using his execShell function to call curl. I've tested this on a Mac running Mac OS X 10.8.3 (Mountain Lion) with Excel for Mac 2011. If you want refreshable Stock quotes directly within Excel, upgrading to Office 365 may be worth it. The new Stock data type makes it a piece of cake to get stock data into Excel. To see if your version of Excel works with this new feature, download the above template.
