I would like to know if VB is able, and how difficult it would be, to write a program that would--
1)access my company web site
2) automatically enter values and submit them to a web site
3) receive data from the website
4) process the data.
Simply, I want to have program "day trade"(not stocks) for me when I am away from the computer.
I know very little about newer programming languages, and I'm not even sure VB is the best language for me.
You need to use the Internet Transfer Control for this sort of thing for the download / reading of the webpage data:

and the webbrowser control for the upload/posting of data:

These 2 might get you started, to find out more information, you might be better off posting this in the internet or general forums. :)
