Hello,

I need to sell boxes of books.

I have a barcode scanner, Amazon* lets you query a book through its ISBN but returns a full web page that I would need to grep through to keep just the good stuff.

Before I look deeper, does someone know of a simple Windows application that can 1) grab the ISBN from the scanner, 2) look up the title + authors from a web site, and 3) add the infos into a database/spreadsheet, ready to be used on eg. eBay?

Thank you.
