VB Server Request

[James Sadlier]

Hi....
I'm attempting to write a small server diagnostic tool that requests a page from a given URL every set interval. Can anyone tell me what control I should use ... I've tried the INET and Microsoft's Winsock control. They seem OK but the problem is that there's nothign about them in the MSDN library, and I don't know how to use them.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

the Internet TransferControl is very easy to use.
just call the OpenURL method of that control and pass the URL as an argument. It will return the page as a VB string.
