Hey, Gurus...

Is there a way to have form fields populate from a url? For example, if the user on my form enters a book title and pushes a search button and is taken to say Amazon.com and that book title. The form would then be populated with the ISBN, author, etc. from that url.

Is this possible?

Thanx, all...as always, YOU ROCK!

probably not, but I'm not really sure. Just giving it a quick thought, I don't think it's possible, and if it is, probably too difficult to worry about. My guess is that you could not do it from inside of Access, but rather you would have to transfer the relevant portion of the HTML code to XML, and then to Access.

Probably be better to just think of a workaround... :)
