webbrowser control

[orionsong]

In my Tools&gt;ActiveX, i do not have 'web browser control', but 'Microsoft Web Browser'. Highlighting it shows the location of the control as 'C:\windows\system\shdocvw.dll'.<br><br>Anyway, i put it onto a form to test it. When i load the form, a mesg says &quot;There is no object in this control&quot;. I have included the code :<br><br>Private sub Form_load()<br>Me!nameofobject.Navigate &quot;etc&quot;<br>End sub<br><br>any ideas.. the code above is not accurate, but it isn't the coding bit i'm worried about.

I manage to correct the above problem by re-installing IE. Now the problem is, Access does not recognise the &lt;b&gt;Navigate&lt;/b&gt; command in;<br><br>Private sub Form_Load()<br>Me!ActiveXCtrl10.Navigate &quot;<A HREF="

It works when set in the Form_Open event... <p>Jim Conrad<br><a href=mailto:jconrad3@visteon.com>jconrad3@visteon.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>

<br>Wanted you to be aware that I tried dropping a Web Browser Control on an Access form and got the same Error Message &quot;There is no object in this control&quot;.<br><br>From Article ID: Q177105<br><br>&quot;The file, Shdocvw.dll (version 4.701.300), is replaced with a newer version that is installed with Internet Explorer 4.0. Microsoft Access 97 does not recognize the newer version (4.71.1712.5) of the control. Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Access 97. This problem no longer occurs in Microsoft Access 2000.&quot;<br><br>I recently installed sp6 and the (massive) Platform SDK on my work machine. Every other machine I have has Explorer 5.<br><br>Havent found Explorer in version &lt; 4.0 anywhere in my stack of CD's so far. <b> VB 5/6 will work fine however</b>.<br>&nbsp; <p>Amiel<br><a href=mailto:amielzz@netscape.net>amielzz@netscape.net</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
