I run a web site and want to write a program to help me update it. I would
appreciate someone pointing me in the right direction as far as this is
concerned.

My main question would be "How do you have to program send it's output to a
web page, instead of a page internal to itself?"

If this program can only do part of this, then it would need to be the data
entry part, cause that is what takes the largest amount of my time and
effort manually.

So, overall this is what I would want it to do: I would want the program to
go to the web, find a certain web site, log in
with my unpw, go to the correct page of the site, enter data in the blanks
of that page (max 30 entries), submit those entries, gather the info the web
site returned, use that info to update my web page, then do that over and
over until all the items of my web site have been checked, then actually
upload my page to my web server.


Thanks

Someone loaned me a book and browsing through it I found the "AppActivate"
command and the "Sendkey" command. I can manually open IE, find my web site,
log in, find the page with the data entry fields, put the curser in the
correct field, then run the my program. AppActivate calls IE back up, then
Sendkey sends data to the fields alternating with tab characters so it moves
to the next field.

This of course is only a small part of what I was asking for a program to
do, but it was the most important part. I can figure the rest out later.

Thanks
