I've been searching Microsoft's website, but i can't find the OLE methods & values for Internet Explorer... This info you want is probably somewhere on MSDN. It might be tricky to find. MSDN is littered with the bones of intrepid explorers who collapsed after searching long and hard for specific information. (Hm.. it wasn't that hard to find after all. Start here.) You can find some skeletal info by firing up the ActiveState ActivePerl documentation page. Scroll down in the left pane, and select Win32::OLE::Browser. This gives you a nifty, web-paged based type browser. In the center panel on the left, scroll down to "Microsoft Internet Controls". This type library defines a class named "InternetExplorer" and one called "WebBrowser". I've only poked at these, but they look like they may give you some of what you want.	[reply]

That InternetExplorer class gives me an idea...do you suppose there's a way to embed an InternetExplorer OLE class inside a Win32::GUI constructed window, having the GUI window as the parent object? ______________________________________________ RIP Douglas Noel Adams 1952 - 2001	[reply]

You can do an anonymous FTP to ftp.cromedome.net. . . check out the file /pub/IEXPLORE.HLP. Should be what you need. Hope this helps! MrCromeDome	[reply]

Is there another way to get this? I haven't been able to log in anonymous (login incorrect). Thanks, Kevin	[reply]
