I am trying to work on a personal database that would scrape a certain website and put that information into a database

 

I have been working on the excel / access route but on looking at the features of FM8.5 it seems that you can do the job totally in the FM program

 

Can anybody give me any info on setting up an automated process with FM to scrape certain parts of a page on a website based on a common link and viewing the results in a table. Is this a pretty standard feature of any database program or is FM particularly suited to this?

 

As you can probably tell this is by no means my area of expertise but I have the free trial and I am ready to go
