Ok First of all I have a few questions and I was wondering if any of you know how to answer them. First I would like to know how you would go about collecting news stories off of the internet to display in an application. So basically when my application starts up it shows a home page and I would like to have it show some top news story’s but I don’t know how to make the program collect them off of the internet. So any ideas or information would be helpful. Also I would like to know if anyone knows of a way to Check if you have mail from a VB 2005 application, so when you start up the program it will ping the yahoo mail server and tell you if you have mail much like AOL or Trillian does when you start it up. That way when my application starts you get the top news stories and it will tell you if you have mail or not. Any help or ideas will be very much appreciated.
Thanks
