I'm trying to add a function to my app that mimics the Google toolbar 
AutoFill functionality - except on a much broader scale.  I plan to map the 
fields of various 3rd party websites (of which I have no control) to my 
existing databases so that my users will only have to enter the information 
once.

I've tried scraping the web page into a memo, changing the "value=" 
properties of the fields, and then sending back to the browser.  This 
doesn't work because the document then looses site of where it came from (it 
thinks it's at about:blank) and the only way I can get back is to Navigate 
there - which looses my changes.

I've tried implementing Adam's code but it doesn't appear to work for me.

Has anyone been down this road?  Even the tiniest crumb of advice on a 
starting point would be greatly appreciated.

I plead ignorance.
