Hello. As I am pretty new to Visual Basic, I would please like you to guide me what to read/learn to create what I want.. Here it is:

Let's say there is a flash multiplayer game online on a page, like chess. I would like to create a program which, will receive data sent from the flash appl (eg the opponent's move) , and then send back data to the flash app making my move, without me having touch the keyboard/mouse. Basically, I want to create an app that will control automatically my moves on the flash multiplayer game according to the other player's move.

Can this be done? And if so , how? As I am not very familiar with VB, what areas should I study in order to create this?
