Hi Nico,
the website is http://www.uaeweather.ae/uae-weather#!/q/186 and its a government website we cant access to there DB. Is it possible to get the temperature, humidity etc from the website to a variable in pcvue?

If they provide a public API you could get these data by doing a program (.Net probably).
It is also possible doing it by VBA.
Check first if they a public API. We will see after the best way to do it.

Hello Tijo,
In fact something like that exists already as an addon to PcVue. Here at PcVue Germany we have developed something that is called MeteoOPC. It is a component that allows you to retrieve weather data from various sources and to provide it to PcVue. I am quite sure that uaeweather.ae is not amongst the currently available sources, but maybe something that could be added easily.
For detailed info you may want to check info@pcvue.de.
