hi,
once vb opens a webpage (with the code below) is there a vb code that allows to type things in the text boxes?

thanks

Dim strURL
strURL = Shell("C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\" _
& "Iexplore.exe

https://www.optionsxpress.com/login.asp?SessionID=0",

Possibly with FindWindow, EnumChildWindows, and SendMessage. It would be easier if you used a webbrowser control. Search this site for WebBrowser in your forums for more info.

Good Luck

hi vb5prgrmr,

Sorry but for a while i couldn't access my yahoo mail and didn't know that someone replied.
I almost succeeded: I found a freeware "auto it" (autoit.com) that has very simple commands to macro anything. Now I plan to combine vb and the macros I wrote with 'auto it' to have my application. I am counting on the variables from each software beeing 'transferable' to the other. I'll find out soon if that works.
