Android Question Open another app from own app

[harinder]

Hello..I am stuck !! I have my app whose primary function is to fill into a database and populate a flexitable after each entry. One of the secondary functions is to fill few of the database entries into a form of another app by first opening it, logging into it and then submitting it online. The app has forms with text boxes which need to be automatically filled as per the current entry, and also has radio buttons and dropdowns out of which appropriate choices need to be selected as per current entry.
Can somebody point me to an example or a possible lead to start with. Is Intent possible through my app, but I don't have access to coding of other app so intent filter will be an issue. Any heads up will be appreciated. Thanks..

It is not possible, unless the other app exposes such features with intents.

Ok Erel..I tried to use following post of @warwound on webviewlogin to login to the parent website of this app:

How set Focus to an Editbox when loaded website into Webview?

After loading a website into webview I want to set the focus to an Editbox which is included in the website. Is it possible? I have not found a function in the webview tutorial. Many Thanks. Walter

        '    uncomment next line to auto submit the logon form
        '    be careful - if logon fails then the webpage will be reloaded
        '    and an infinite loop of failed logons is likely

What changes do I need to make ?
How do I get rid of the chatbot interface that pops up and refuses to go?
Also, I understand that after injecting username and password, the user can input the captcha code as he sees it, to enable final login and enable autofill of form from next page onwards as desired in my opening post?
Thanks
