    Automate IE download from jsp web page

    Hi,

    I'm trying to retrieve a csv file from a jsp web page and need to automate the following:

    1)Logon (which I have managed - thanks to the code posted on this site)
    2)Click on one of the links on the screen after logging on (tried sendkeys and navigate but doesn't seem to work)
    3)Select download date range from combo box on next screen
    4)Submit, download window pops up
    5)Choose Save file to a folder

    I'm new to programming in VBA and any help/guidance would be greatly appreciated!!

    My apologies. First time using this. And thanks very much for the explanation site, Lucas.

    I think your best bet is to contact the site admins and ask them whether you can create a direct URL to the file you want to download.
