Hey all

im a student at uni currently studying .net. we have just been given an assignment to create a lottery syndicate sytem. the principle is u enter the numbers into text boxes and check the numbers against number that people have chose.

any way one of the criteria for top marks is to automaitlcy retreive the numbers from the lottery web site and enter the values in automaticly. is this even possible? if so how would i go about doing it cheers. as i said i am a beginner with .net

thank alot

You would have to screen scrap the site if they do not have an webservice/rss feed.
