Keeping track of IE Windows

[uprichard]

I create an IE browser window using the following:

Dim oIE As Object
Set oIE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
If oIE Is Nothing Then
LogEntry "Could not invoke Internet Explorer Object"
Exit Function
End If
oIE.Visible = True
Set GetBrowser = oIE
Set oIE = Nothing

I can now drive the application. But the problem is that sometimes the application will close this browser window and open a new one.

Question: How can I reset the object "GetBrowser" to point to the new IE window?

Thanks,

Have a look at the Getobject function, which can return an existing instance. You can trap the error if no existing instance exists and then use the Createobject if required.
