Tnx Andy,
I got the NTLM authorization to work;
I'm trying LWP partly out of curiosity and partly because I expect it to be faster than Win32::IE::Mechanize.
I've updated the node with the relevant code.
It runs as is, and does what I want it to do, but it's not as efficient as it could be, because the POST of the field values to the 'second page' doesn't work, and thus the database retrieves all values (ie doesn't filter by the fields in the form on the page)
Best regards,
allan
