Enabling web search form from Access Form

I have programmed several buttons to access various industry specific search
sites.

I want to have PriceSearchCommand1 take the value of a field (or fields) in
the Record being created and input these values into fields of the same name
at these sites after the link has been established.

I am not interested in returning any of the data mined from the web site as
it needs to be analyzed by the user prior to completing the record, but I
would like to be able to increase productivity by enabling the search while
in the process of creating the record.

For example, I would like to take the ISBN number of a given book, and be
able to return search results in Explorer from ADDall.com and Half.com in
order to be able to compare results and analyze the value of my book against
the available information; enabling both searches to run in the background in
separate windows with button clicks while I continue to create the full
record in Access on screen.
