HI

You could use the Internet Transfer contol, which ships with VFP.

This will allow you to connect to your webpage and bring down the source as text placing it into a varible.


Basic Operation
The functionality of the Internet Transfer control depends on the protocol you wish to use. Because the two supported protocols work differently, the operations you can perform depend on which protocol you are using. For example, the GetHeader method only works with HTTP (HTML documents).

However, there are a few procedures that are common to both protocols. Basically, in order to use either protocol, you must:

Set the AccessType property to a valid proxy server.


Invoke the OpenURL method with a valid URL.


Invoke the Execute method with a valid URL and command appropriate to the protocol.


Use the GetChunk method to retrieve data from the buffer.

try this link to MSDN

Hope this helps
