control a network device based on web data
 

I am looking to send a message to a serial device over my network
using TCP/IP. This message will need data acquired from a table on a
website.

I was thinking of scheduling an excel web query everyday to get this
data, but how can I automate sending this data to a device over the
network?

I was hoping to use VBA to do this, but am open to working with C++,
Visual Basic, etc.

Has anyone done anything like this?

Thanks,
Don
