Is it possible in VBA to simulate the click of a button on a webpage?
We have a main supplier who we have a log-in and password for online.
I can create the internet explorer window in access and can create the
string for the relevant search for a product but the site keeps asking
for me to log-in, which only requires a "click" of the log-in button.

Can this be done?

You can use the DOM and call the button's click event:
myWebBrowserControl.document.forms(0)("myButtonName").click

Thank you Tom, that is extremely helpful. I am unfamiliar with "DOM"
but will search for it shortly.

Thanks again
