I have the URL, loginID, and password.
How do I login the website within my VB app?
Thanks

Bill,

If your using the WebClient class, try setting the WebClient instances
credentials property...

Dim wc As New WebClient
wc.Credentials = New NetworkCredentials("UserName", "Password")

HTH,

Here's what I got!

I can login, however, I can't get the data I need.
The site is running ASP app, and it will display a page with the content I
would like to capture . I can "View Source" and see the data are embedded in
the HTML tags, but don't know how to get it. How can you read/download data
in the page?

Thanks a million!

Bill
