Sorry to double post....I posted in the wrong section...got no replies

 

Hi,

 

I am having a %$#* of a time trying to find a way to retrieve

historical stock price data from Yahoo with VB.NET.

 

It was quite easy in VB6 using the INET control to contact the

Yahoo data server and store the resulting .csv file in a variant to

be parsed (split) later.

 

=================

Dim myURLString as string

Dim MyResponse as variant

 

'Constuct the url to request the data

myURLString = "HTTP:finance.chart.yahoo/.....symbol=CSCO...and so on.."

 

myResponse = Inet1.OpenURL(myURLString)

 

'This would fill "myResponse" with months of historical price data :-)

=================

 

Does anyone know a VB.NET technique for the same process. ?

(Or perhaps direct me to a site where some examples may be)

 

Thanks
