This morning I created another video tutorial, this one on downloading web content to use inside your .NET application. The tutorial goes over downloading content with the WebClient class as well as a brief intro to multithreading with the BackGroundWorker class.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Net;

namespace WebClientDemo1
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            bgWorker1.RunWorkerAsync();

        }

        private void bgWorker1_DoWork(object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e)
        {
            try
            {
                WebClient webC = new WebClient();
                bgWorker1.ReportProgress(1, webC.DownloadString(textBox1.Text));
            }
            catch (Exception ee)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(ee.Message);
            }

        }

        private void bgWorker1_ProgressChanged(object sender, ProgressChangedEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.ProgressPercentage == 1)
            {
                textBox2.Text = (string)e.UserState;
            }
        }
    }
}
