My university has a website that students can use to check stuff like their lesson schedules, latest grades, exam times, etc. Just general information about you and your study (after you have logged in of course).For interested, this is the website (not much use without a login obviously, but still): [URL]I have been thinking lately that it would be nice to have a desktop application that could give me the same information. However, I have absolutely no idea how that would work, and whether or not it is even possible. I mean, technically it should be possible for me to get the information (how else does the website get it) provided it is not secured (even when using the correct login details). I am sure the website communicates with a database somewhere. Does that mean I could theoretically also communicate with the database (probably: read from it only, not write) for example by executing queries?If that is possible, how do I figure out which queries to use for the different pieces of information? Obviously I don't know the details of the database so I can't just send a random query and expect it to work...

View 3 RepliesI have an asp.net webpage that only contains a textbox and a button. The user submits their email address using this webpage.What I am trying to do now is take the information submitted by the user and go to another website. Where my "website/program" gives the different website the entered email address, and clicks the submit button.
If I where to physically go to the different website, there would be a textbox to enter the email. But since I am accessing the website from my page "behind the scenes" I cant manually enter their email address.Is it possible to do this, if so how? Also, my code behind is in VB.
I wanted to make a program where it will retrieve data from websites I use regularly and display important parts to me such as my horoscope, friends online, new emails etc. I'm just having a problem figuring out how to get visual basic to display the website information.

View 1 RepliesI have had a few programming courses in college, but I'm far from a VB expert. I work at a bank and I want to copy information off of webpages and put it into an Excel worksheet. I created a macro that automatically opens up Internet explorer -- but really what I need is a subroutine (or a method) that copies information from 1.1Million records / screens and places the information into MS Excel.There are 1.1M records, so ideally-- I like it to copy all information over a weekend and come in on Monday and be done. At the very least, I would like a macro that can run off of a shortcut and copy all information on a webpage and puts information into each respective cell. Ie. copies the name field and puts into the name cell in Excel... address field into the address cell in Excel.

View 1 RepliesI am writing an app which gets information from a website. Basically I load the webpage into a webbrowser control and parse the document text for what I need.
My problem is: I have a German version of windows. The webpage returned has the German version of the webpage. I require the English version but there is no way of specifying the language in the URL, so it must be picking up the default language of my operating system. How can I override this, is there a property of the Webbrowser control which I can set?
I want to extract some information from a web site (Bloomberg). This side has a search textbox with a onKeyUp event that, as far as I can understand, uses AJAX to create a table. Is it possible to insert some text in the textbox and then get the table created with AJAX? Given the source code of the page with the tabled already AJAXed (If you understand what I want to say here), I can easily retrieve the table. I just need to get the source code with the table already on it.
