asp_databases thread: extracted data imported into a database/chart

What is the best solution to extract external data from other websites
(with their permission) using something like asptear, inserting these
values into a database and then displaying the data graphically using a
2-dimensional scattering chart, ie. chart points arranged by x and y with
the possibility of multiple y values for a an x value.
Thank you for your detailed answer.

a) Use a component to get the data
b) Use ADO to insert the data into your database
c) Use a graph component (there are plenty around, just do a search) to
display the graph...
That's about as detailed as it's going to get.
Cheers
Ken

Brian,
If the site you are connecting to use ADO 2.5, you can ask then to
output
data in XML format. From there it is quite easy to move it back to your
database, especially if you use ADO 2.5 on your side too.
There is a good article about it in the November 1999 issue of "Visual
Basic
programmer Journal", p. 105.
