Could do with writing a quick something that is very basic in structure and probably wouldn't require much effort.

What I need to make:

A program with a text input that is then parsed into an amazon web URL and the program then opens the web browser to that page?

Can't be that hard can it right?

I will be able write this myself, just havent touched VB in ages, so need pointing in the write direction...

Cheers!!!

You mean like a simple button that opens a process?

Via toolbar create a process and then choose a file path for the process so when you click the selected button it will open the provided process.

Youtube bud, thousands of tutorials on this.

I have now completed this, it was hard to explain what i needed, but i've done it I now need to write a program that can extract addresses out of text files, For example the text file could look like this,

Navy new york police dept t shirt

222 Donkey road
doo daa city
england
34r rke

----------------------------------------------------
Blue nike t shirt

random address
road road
city
country
postal code


How acheiveable is this? Im willing to give as much information as needed to make this work. cheers.

If the street addresses aren't public information, then I don't think this would be possible unless you had access to their database.
Now you could make a program that would search the site, then return a link to the item in the store.
