PS, to run the macro you will have to add a reference for "Microsoft
Internet Controls". In the VB Editor, click

Tools | References

and then scroll down to find "Microsoft Internet Controls" and put a check
in the box and click OK.

Here's an example of a way to login automatically. Each website is
going
to
be different, with different forms and names--the trick is to match the
form
names with what they do and then utilize their properties to enter
information in the right spots and click the right button. This
procedure
lists the name of each form, which is a good way to start, as the names
give
a good idea of what the form does. And then it logs you in to the Yahoo
Message boards server.

HTH,
Shockley

Can a VBA macro be written to:



1.. Go to a web site
2.. Enter the user code (i.e., the macro types it, not the user)
3.. Enter the password (i.e., the macro types it, not the user)
What would the SUB look like?



Any help would be much appreciated.
