    <p><strong>If this is a console application, then it will not work since the console application doesn't have a message pump (which is required for the <code>WebBrowser</code> to process messages).</strong></p> <p><strong>If you run this in a Windows Forms application</strong>, then you should handle the <code>DocumentCompleted</code> event:</p> <pre><code>WebBrowser browserEmulator = new WebBrowser(); browserEmulator.DocumentCompleted += OnDocumentCompleted; browserEmulator.Navigate(this.SiteRoot); </code></pre> <p>Then implement the method that handles the event:</p> <pre><code>private void OnDocCompleted(object sender, WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventArgs e) { WebBrowser wb = sender as WebBrowser; if (wb.Document != null) { List&lt;string&gt; links = new List&lt;string&gt;(); foreach (HtmlElement element in wb.Document.GetElementsByTagName("a")) { links.Add(element.GetAttribute("href")); } foreach (string link in links) { Console.WriteLine(link); } } } </code></pre> <p><strong>If you want to run this in a console application</strong>, then you need to use a different method for downloading pages. I would recommend that you use the <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.webrequest.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><code>WebRequest</code></a>/<a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.webresponse.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><code>WebResponse</code></a> and then use the <a href="http://htmlagilitypack.codeplex.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><code>HtmlAgilityPack</code></a> to parse the HTML. The <code>HtmlAgilityPack</code> will generate an <code>HtmlDocument</code> for you and you can get the links from there.</p> <hr> <p>Additionally, if you're interested in learning more about building scalable web crawlers, then check out the following links:</p> <ul> <li><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1935148/how-to-crawl-billions-of-pages/7799090#7799090">How to crawl billions of pages?</a></li> <li><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5834808/designing-a-web-crawler/5834890#5834890">Designing a web crawler</a></li> </ul> <p>Good luck!</p>

    1. CORighteous man, thanks for the advice, I'll have to go grab the Agility pack, I'm just trying to put together a code sample to send out with my resume to a couple of places, a crawler seemed like a fairly straightforward, all encompassing solution.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
