making VB POST or GET data

[dolphin99]

Hi,
I wish to use a 3rd parties website from within my VB program.
Basically it has an input box for a date and a submit button, the site then sends you to the relevant page.

My question is:
How do I duplicate what the <FORM> tags do on that site in my VB program?
In other words how do I send a date (or any data) to the targeted script via VB?

Thanks to anyone who can help.
Phil.

Place a web browser on your vb form, and then direct this browser to the site you want. Using the getObjectByTag, you can then call textboxes, submit buttons or other controls.

BiggerBrother,
Doesnt the 'getObjectByTag' function just retrieve data ?

Sorry, I am fairly new to VB.
