I have been using the Web Tool for over 5 years now and it is wonderful!

Something that I would love to do with it is to automate this process where my customers must enter data in my system and then enter it in a web-based system. It would be nice if they could enter it in my system (Windows-based) and then my system enters the same information into the web site automatically. The problem is that this web site doesn't have any CGI programs for this. How can I use the Web Tool to simulate a user Web browser data entry session? Do you have any examples? Thanks for the help.

Well, first you would have to write the web page that accepts the data and does whatever it does with it. I'm guessing you would use ASP for that.

Once that was done, you could use the Web Tool to post data to the page you created.

Sorry, but I don't have an example that does exactly what you want. The Web Tool comes with a "PostDemo" sample that may help.
