Getting started with openssl

[John Forbes]

Hello,   This is very much a newbie question; I hope someone can take the time to answer it.   My environment is C++builder5 with Indy 9. I need to access from a client an https site, whose http pages I can successfully get to. So I downloaded and installed the openssl dlls. What else do I have to do in order to issue a successful Get to an https site?   Thanks in advance   John
