Of-course you can. You can write this string to html file using: TextWriter tw = new StreamWriter( yourfilename.htm ); tw.WriteLine( webData ); tw.Close(); you just need to append this code with above.

Hi Bin Salachevsky  In ASP.NET there is WebClient class you can use for this. using WebClient System.Net.WebClient WC= new System.Net.WebClient(); byte[] raw = WC.DownloadData(http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/Forums/Thread/258086/save-web-form-data-to-disk-file.aspx); string webData = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(raw); Hope it will help.

Actually this string contain complete html returned by specified url: like other dom elements and contents.. So you have to play with string here. try using substringsplit to retrieve specific element value. good luck. :)
