What have you tried? What happened when you tried it? It looks to me like pressing "Submit" causes a POST to go to a page called "SignOnCtlr". The value would look like this:

UserId=user&Password=pass&Submit+Data.x=67&Submit+Data.y=7

The code would be something like this:

Option Explicit
Const User = "test"
Const Pass = "whatever"

Private Sub Command1_Click()
  On Error GoTo OnError
  Command1.Enabled = False
  Http1.Timeout = 15000
  Http1.Url = "https://ewave.alltel.com/Ewave/SignOnCtlr"
  Dim Result As String
  Dim s As String
  s = "UserId=" + User
  s = s + "&Password=" + Pass
  s = s + "&Submit+Data.x=67&Submit+Data.y=7"
  Http1.Post s, , Result
  Debug.Print Result
  GoTo Done
OnError:
  Debug.Print "ERROR #" + CStr(Err.Number) + ": " + Err.Description
Done:
  Command1.Enabled = True
End Sub

If that doesn't help, email us directly and supply a valid username and pass. If you have support we'll look into it.

Thanks,

Tony,

The code used for the summit button ("&Submit+Data.x=67&Submit+Data.y=7) where did you get numbers and what does it all denote?

Thanks

Tony sorry I forgot to state that this part of the code does not work("&Submit+Data.x=67&Submit+Data.y=7") however if I change it to "&Submit+Data" + "=&images/submit_trans.gif" it will work. Do you know why this is working this way and if so will you tell me?
Thanks

I got the string by using the WebServer tool and modifying the page to post to it instead. Then when the POST event fired, I looked at the raw request.

I thought I answered this already, but I will again. Unfortunately my answer is "I have no idea"

I'm sorry I couldn't help.
