[2008] Getting The Data You Need from a website

[Orbit__]

Using webcontrol i am able to transfer the html code to a textbox but i need the data of amount of refferals some of the text is

# of Referrals (view)X

X are the number of refferals of the person how can i get the value of X

I tried the data split code but it didnt help

dim data as string = textbox1.text
dim Split() as string = data.split(" "c)
'bla bla but it didnt work

I just wanted to ask is there any simpler and better way?
