    Thanks for the info. I'll let you know how it works out. On a side note, the macro still works on my Windows XP computer, just not on the Windows 7 upgraded computers. JR

    I have a macro that was written a few years ago, and the team now using it is having trouble after upgrading their systems to Windows 7.

    VBA Filling out IE form, but can't find form name

    Ya, I tried (0) as well. It returns the error as well. Thanks for posting the Watch FAQ. Had never tried that before. The value of the object "objParent" is "Nothing" in the watch window. Not sure how to dig around to see what objects / forms are on the page.

    VBA Filling out IE form, but can't find form name

    I've been working on a macro to check inventory on merchandise. When I run the "Get Field" macro by CautionMP, the results are blank. Checking "For Each" form with a macro, it skips past the "Next" giving me reason to think there are no forms or they've hidden it beyond my skills. I believe...

    Excel Macro to hit &quot;Save&quot; on an IE Form

    Also, while I have you... I'm having trouble getting IE to settle after manipulation. While objWindow.Busy Wend While objWindow.Document.ReadyState <> "complete" Wend doesn't seem to be enough wait time. Is there a better alternative, or more things to wait for?

    Startup Macro Help

    Skip - we use Excel to do a number of applications, and when we need to call on one of the EXTRA macros, we just need a pop up box for an item number, quantity, store, etc... depending on the application. Since the macros can run for quite a while, we want to be able to use Excel while the...

    Startup Macro Help

    Skie I wasn't sure if you could call the Extra macro. I would rather do that, but wouldn't know the code. You'd have to find what object it is and then get it to start, and I'm not a programmer enough to accomplish that. Also, to answer LearningAsIGo, I'm not getting to the point where I'm...

    CautionMP I have seen and attempted to use your FAQ, but seem to keep running into trouble understanding how to use the SETFIELDS function.
