Putting text into Internet Explorer text boxes?

Hi.
I posted this in the Internet forum, but after thinking about it, I figured this is more of an API thing.
Now, I know nothing about API. And I ahve a question.
You know sometimes you go to a web site and they ask you to fill out a bunch of info (your name, email, etc). Well, I want to write a VB program that will automatically put text into the text boxes on the web page.
For example, I go to a site with a bunch of form fields (each field has a different name), and then I click the 'Fill' button in my program, and the program would automatically fill out the form in the browser with my name, etc. THe browser can either be an open IE window, or a WebBrowser object. How would I write a program like that? I figured it has something to do with using API to put things into teh text boxes of another program, and I'm pretty sure it can be done ('Gator' does it, some other programs do it as well). How would I write this? Any help would be appreciated.

HI

I am not much of an expert but cant you use SendKeys to send keystrokes to an application. Perhaps if the web page has fields like Username and Password you could use sendkeys Username then Tab and finally the password
