The FollowHyperlink method is used to open google.com. A google search can
be performed from there. Does anyone know how to programatically save to a
table the URL google goes to?

Thanks,

Steve

re: Programatically Save URL


Pretty much impossible with VBA. May be possible to control a web brower to
control what text is searched for (though I wouldn't have a clue how), but
to read text entered into a different program is not going to be possible
(standard declaration just in case somebody comes up with something) I
think.

Might be possible to interrogate the history folder to see what has
happened, but a brief look at that here shows that that data is very well
hidden.
