[AstroPower]

Hello
I can write down some Vbscript codes to ASP file to get serial number and calculates passowrd to that number and send it back as a response

The question is how to send that serial and also retrieve the response in VB application to register your application for example in a hidden way
Thanks for help

You are basically asking how to do online registration of your VB product, yes?

It sounds like he wants the application to handle the registration internally, hitting his ASP page with the serial and other registration data and fetching back the password.

If so, there are a number of techniques ranging from the Winsock control/API to the Inet control/API to XMLHTTPRequest to a 3rd party control or ...

But they all come down to the same thing. Just prompt the user for the serial, email address, etc. then fire off an HTTP request and parse the response. One could use the existing "human readable" ASP page or have another one more machine oriented (XML, plain text, or whatever). Then record the password locally and/or display it for the user to record as you see fit.
