Hi,

I'm using the WebBrowser control (.NET 2.0) to login to a website and
download a file. I navigate to the login page of the website, then
programatically fill username and password to login. Then I navigate to the
URL of the file. It all works fine, but I get the IE Save Dialog box when I
navigate to the file URL.

Is there a way to suppress this Save Dialog and instead download the file to
a given location.

I know the WebClient class has a DownloadFile method, but I need to be
logged-in to the website in order to download (i.e need to have a valid
session). I don't think the WebClient or WebRequest will allow me to access
the home page and login before accessing the URL for the file.

Could you help?

You can use WebClient or WebRequest to make multiple requests with the same
cookie container
To enable WebClient to use a cookie container you need to override the
GetWebRequest method, create a request that reuses the cookie container
between requests.
