I have been asked to create an Application for use on Windows which will link into a web front end for clients to submit information with.

The application will check the website for any new information upon loading.

The issue I have is I have never done anything like this before and have no idea where to start.

The web-form will ask for a unique identifier which the client will use to submit their info, this identifier will then link into the local app database and record the submission.

Anyone able to give me any pointers on how best to achieve this?

Cheers

Sounds like it should be basically the same thing as creating an online high scores table (eg. http://www.clickteam.com/website/world/tutorials ).
You'll need the GET extension and you'll also need to know both PHP and SQL.
I can't really help, as I've never experimented with it myself, and find PHP and SQL deeply unpleasant (one day, I might look into using server-side Javascript instead).
