Hi
I am wanting any information on building a program to search the web for keywords and meta tags. I have used WEBBANDIT and it is nice however I would like to add some things. Does any one have any information on how to build such a program?
Thanks for the help.

Go to search engines you know.
And then search for something.
After getting the results, copy the address.
For example, on www.yahoo.com, I searched for "something".
Here is the result: http://search.yahoo.com/bin/search?p=something
So now you can use that. Make Text1 what you want to search. So it's like:
SearchResults$ = "http://search.yahoo.com/bin/search?p=" & Text1.text
Understand? And you can Shell IE directly, incase you want more than 1 window popping up instead of using the ShellExecute api function which will probably only load 1 page and append to it.
Code:
Dim SearchResults$
SearchResults$ = "http://search.yahoo.com/bin/search?p=" & Text1.text
Shell "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IExplore.exe " & SearchResults$ , vbNormalFocus

RE search web
That is part of what I wanted to know. The rest is I am wanting all the links to show up in a datagrid with headings like email,title,URL,Phone,Fax,and State.
The reason is to look at many search engines at once and get the email address as needed.
Thanks for any ideas
