Hello,
I would like to know how to use a database for my bot. Kind of like Feanor's WinClient. It reads a text file from a website and checks to see if username is on the list. If not, it declines connection, if so, it allows the bot to connect.
Thank You,
JoeSchmoe
It seems to me that you just answered your own question. To do what you asked, simply:
-Read a text file from a website containing a list of users.
-Check to see if the current username is on the list.
-If so, allow connection.
-If not, decline connection.
Yes, thanks, but I do not know how to make a VB program read a text file from the internet.
VB to Internet or Internet to VB is what I'm new at.
Using Winsock, or it could easily be done with the INet control.
Don't know how to do that stuff. :P

This is when you look up the control info for the winsock or inet controls....

You took the words right out of my mouth! Well, right off my keyboard anyway...
Since you've been given the outline of what you need to do, I would suggest going and researching it. You have to look like you're at least making some effort at learning :-P
