New to .Net

I have been programming in vb6 for about 4 years. i have used a lot of sendkey code in most of my programs because this is the way i taught myself some 10 years ago when i started in vb 3.0 I am wanting to do some coding where i can click on certain button on my web browser in my form and and gather for instance usernames from a website. what would be the best place to find tutorials for this and does anyone recommend a book that i could pick up. thanks in advance

Here's a Good starting point :

Isn't using HTMLDocument more appropriate in manipulating web browsers? And be aware that Sendkeys will not work on Vista.
