Hello,

I was wondering if there is a way to create a long URL using ASP's query strings BUT in a VB.NET Windows Application.

In that URL it will have an encoded SQL query & Username / Password.

Do I add a component? Reference?

After the URL is created in the VB.NET windows form, pass that URL (maybe a string variable) to an ASP page? Then open Internet Explorer.

So far, I have some code to open up IE.

VB Code:
  1. Private Sub cmdSubmit_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdSubmit.Click
  2.         Try
  3.             Process.Start("http://localhost/weblink")
  4.         Catch ex As Exception
  5.             MsgBox("Can't load Web page" & vbCrLf & ex.Message)
  6.         End Try
  7.     End Sub

As for the syntax to create a query string in a Windows Form not a Web Form and encoding the UserName/Password, I'm foggy about that. Any samples?

Thanks for your assistance!
