3. Apply for restricted owner information datasets

5. Create a new Excel spreadsheet
6. Press ALT+F11
7. Press CTRL+M and import the LINZExcel.bas file
8. Open the LINZExcel module
9. Near the top of the code, find 'Public Const key as String = "my LINZ API key"' and replace key string with your LINZ api key
10. Close VBA for applications
11. Creat a button in a worksheet and assign it to the GetTitleInformation macro. See here.
12. Save as an 'Excel Macro-Enabled Workbook' (.xlsm)

Using LINZExcel

1. Enter valid titles into a column within the same worksheet as the button created during setup
2. Select the titles you want to process
3. Click the button
4. After a few seconds the following worksheets will be created and populated with data: PropertyTitlesList, PropertyTitleEstatesList, PropertyTitleOwnersList, TitleMemorialsList, TitleParcelAssociationList
5. The data received from LINZ is not ordered. You'll need to use the Filter/Sort features of Excel to make sense of the results.
