You can use a webclient with streamreader to save the html code which of course has the text with it somewhere. Here is a sample code of how to import a webpages html code to a textbox. All you have to do from here is do a search through that string and pull out whatever you need. Im sure there is probably a better way to do this but this just came to my head





Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
dim htmlstr as string
dim sr as io.streamreader
dim wc as new net.webclient
dim s as string
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
this will create a large string and save it to var s
htmlstr = "http://mysite.com"

sr = New IO.StreamReader(wc.OpenRead(htmlstr))
s = sr.ReadToEnd
sr.DiscardBufferedData()
sr.Close()
wc.Dispose()
TextBox1.Text = s

s now contains all the html and displays it in a textbox
