Internet Transfer Control in Dot Net???

[gwhite1]

I used to be able to easily transfer a file or web page off of a web
site to a flat file with the VB6 internet transfer control.

Does anyone know how to do this in Dot.NET 2005 VB? VB6 was so easy.

Thanks!!

Well it is still easy but totally different as in VB6
in .Net you can create a webclient like this
<imports>
Imports System
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Net

<Code>
Dim URI As String = "http://www.google.com"

Dim wbClient As new WebClient
Dim strData As Stream = client.OpenRead(URL)
Dim sr As StreamReader = New StreamReader(data)
see the overloads for more options ( like sending data as a post etc )
