Hi all,

First off, is it possible to send data to an input box on a webcontrol on a form ie if I load a website can I auto enter data from my database (for example a postcode search) and then enter that search..........

how do I then capture the results as text? I can right click on the webcontrol and select "view source" can I capture this or just output it to a text file?

any help most appreciated.

Neil

Have a look here, a forum member named Ridders may have something similar.

thank you for the reply but the postcode example I gave was just for example purposes.......

is there a way of collecting the metadata of a website visited via a MS Access Form WebBrowser Control?

I'm not totally clear what you want.

If you want to read the contents of a web page then see another post of mine

NOTE this doesn't scrape the underlying code used to create the web page but it may still be of use to you
