Hello,

This may not necessarily be an access question, but at this time,
Access and VBA is the one thing I know the most about. I am looking
for direction and fesability of creating a function that will in
effect goto a specified website address and copy the asp file to a
prefined folder on our server. I create small databases for a
correctional facility. Our state has a website where you can search
for a prisoner and each prisoner has their picture. The graphic
location is the same for every prisoner,
http://www.state.mi.us/mdoc/asp/ProfileImage.asp?mdocNumber=123456.

I would like to use my tblPrisonerInfo.PNumber and loop through the
records, and using the url address - concatenated with the PNumber,
capture the image and then copy/paste it to a folder on our server.

Is this possible in Access/VBA? If so, can I get some thoughts,
possibly some examples, but most of all a direction to go where I can
read up on this and learn.

Thank you in advance.
