Can access go to a website and read the contents of each page?

I have to create a database of products and i need to do it by reading the
HTML to derive fields. I did this fine, but their are so many other pages
within each category, for example: the next page button will take you to
the next pages etc etc.
Does anybody know a way I can follow these links and read the html?

Thakns in advance

Hello
I got the webbrowser object to work and now the app runs fine.
The webbrowser object is nice
and I also used the microsoft.xmlhttp syntax to load web pages.

Thanks for your help.
