It's quite simple, really. All you need is an INET control (called INET1 for the sake of not repeatedly calling it an INET control) and a textbox named txtparsethis (same reason as inet1) First make sure that the textbox is multiline. To get the page source into the textbox, do txtparsethis.text = Inet1.OpenURL("http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/;) Lets say that you are parsing the amount of points someone has here on this site. After making sure you are logged in, get the source, which is at http://forums.xisto.com/. Then after looking at the source, look at the thing that preceeds the points you have and is after the points you have. let strone = preceding and strtwo being the thing after it, do startlook = instr(1, txtparsethis.text, strone) + len(strone) endlook = instr(startlook,txtparsethis.text,strtwo) pointsstr = mid(txtparsethis,startlook,endlook) points = val(pointsstr)
