I am trying to write a Visual Basic program to automate a procedure for a friend. I need some advice or a reference on the HTML Document Object and how to use it for this purpose.
Here is the procedure: 1. The user needs to go to the web site: http://www.co.wayne.ny.us/RPT-TaxSearch/ 2. The user needs to click on the "I Agree" button at the bottom of the page. 3. This brings up a new web site with a search box. 4. The user then needs to enter and ID# in the search box and perform the search. 5. The results come up with a table from which the user needs to get some info and put it into an Excel document. This part I can do if I can get over doing the first few steps of getting to this page and performing the search. Anyway, here is some of the code I am using: Sub AcquireData(ByVal browser As WebBrowser) ' the parameter browser has already been set up to connect to the URL which contains the "I Agree" button ' set up the document object for the web page Dim doc As System.Windows.Forms.HtmlDocument ' use the HTMLElement object if necessary Dim Element As System.Windows.Forms.HtmlElement doc = browser.Document ' now, here is where I need the help: ' 1. Find the "I Agree" button on the page ' click on the "I Agree" button to bring up the search page ' find the search field for the ID# on the new page ' enter the search ID# (which my application acquires in another subroutine) ' Once the new page comes up, I have the code to process the table on the page and deal with the data Call ProcessTable( browser ) End sub Thanks for any help, suggestions, or references.
