Friends, i am talking about the global website which is not created by me or i don't know its internal strucure/Code.

i just want to fill the information form of that website from my windows application, then catch generated result from website and show in my windows application.

So is this possible? If yes then how?

Thanks to all for their reply.

Hi Kishor,

You can use web browser control in your windows application. You can open your information form in web browser control in windows application. You can also get response from web browser control.

You can get response in webBrowser_DocumentCompleted event.

You can only get the view source HTML of any website. You can do this by using the below code :
public static String code(string Url)
{

HttpWebRequest myRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(Url);
myRequest.Method = "GET";
WebResponse myResponse = myRequest.GetResponse();
StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(myResponse.GetResponseStream(), System.Text.Encoding.UTF8);
string result = sr.ReadToEnd();
sr.Close();
myResponse.Close();

return result;
}
Now the above function will return as string and you need to parse the string and get desired result.
