Websites and forms. With VB

OK, I hope my sig still has the website I am working on it.

Here's my deal. I have been hired as a Virtual Assistant for a real estate company, wich requires me to do a few different things. One of them is taking listings and inserting them into our database driven listings.

Now this is an agent website. The broker also has a website, and that website allows one to insert listings.

I am doing some research to get more sites that I can put my listings on.

Here is my problem. I really don't want to have to fill out multiple forms for each listing. What I would like to be able to do, is create one form, in visual basic, that acts as a robot. It automatically goes to the website I built, greates the folder in the directory (I am assuming using some variation of Fopen) and then inserts everything into the database.

Then, after it is completed, go to the next website, logs me in and then goes does the forms for me.

One of the obsticles here is that I can easily do it on my site, basically triggering the php script that ads the listings, but, with the other sites, I would have to make the program simulate clicking links and buttons on the website.

Has anyone ever seen a tutorial that explains the last portion of this project? or possibly created a program similar that wouldn't mind sharing a little bit of code with me.

I am currently using Visual Basic 2005 beta.

Thanks in advance
Mike
