View 2 RepliesI am trying to build a VB.NET 2005 windows app which gets cars info from a webpage(webapplication) that has a username and password.

So how can I read these data with my application?
I have been trying to extract the text between multiple tags on a web page with the same outerhtml info. For example:
[Code]...
I have the following code to open a webpage:
Dim IE As Object
Dim x As Integer
Dim c As Variant
[code]....
The page that opens is in xml and in that xml there is the "page_count" that I need to pick out so I can tell my macro when to stop looping. I have dimmed it as "c" in the code above. Following is the XML.
<search>
<total_items>360</total_items>
<page_size>100</page_size>
<page_count>4</page_count>
Somehow I need c = "4", which is the "page_count". Does anyone know how I can pick out the "4" from the xml on my page?

View 11 RepliesSuppose I already know the line number such as row 100 in a text file. How can I directly get it without many codes?

To simplify what I am trying to do, let's say I have a text file with only one line of data.
The data in this case is color info for one pixel:
Color [A=255, R=255, G=200, B=128]
What I am trying to do is read the text file and extract the hex color info and save them to their own variable.
So once the code has run, these should be the contents of the three variables.
RedData = 255
GreenData = 200
BlueData = 128
I have managed to get something to work but I know the code is terrible and is incredibly slow when I try to run through hundreds of lines in a text file.
Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click
Dim PixelData As String
