Internet Explorer Manipulation

[Phailak]

There's a process my team has to do on a daily basis which I need to find a way to automate. We have to login to a site, go to the reports page. Choose a report and then click extract. Use a Save As dialog box. From then on, everything else is automated.
Is it possible to create somekind of bot that will do these actions for me? I tried and tried to get backend access to the files directly and it's not possible.

Hmm... it's not so hard to do it but you'll need to tell use the URL you need to automate. You can manipulate the WebBrowser component to enter the username, password and continue but we need to see the source in order to acchive it. Parsing out the report link shouldn't be hard eather...

As already said, we'll need to see the source.

I'm not confortable with providing the link, is there a general example of how to manipulate the WebBrowser component I could study?

Here's a very good Static's WebBrowser tut
