You could with use of direct DB access [not recommended]
and you could also do this with PHP files [also not recomended]

ths is basically what Ijji's Gunz launcher does.

You Login to their system. their system opens the gunz launcher with a url poitning to your user info. and from there it opens gunz. its probably whayt your attem,ptingf to do. but this is not secure if someone finds your url. it can be hidden and people will still find it

hmm is there something u do recommend?

well try using the PHP method since I don't want to have to teach you how to make a server that does all this for you and is more secure. maybe when I release my SDK(Server Dev Kit) youll be able to make the server.

i would say you should use the browser component and then make it browse for a php webpage u set up earlier to login/register. Then use php to get your app to do certain things, there are plenty of ways to get that done.
good luck

Thats basically what I was saying however the instead of a web browser make the GUI yourself and just call your PHP scripts like this

if xxx & xx && xxx && xxx && xx != null
Shell("http://path/to/your/php/file/here.php?field=xxx&...");
else Errors

somethign like that I don't use VB but thats how I would do it because it looks cleaner and more professional.
