ActiveX Microsoft Web Browser problem

7 New Member
I am building an MS Access application that has an embedded web browser in a form. The form is linked to a table and the browser navigates to the address in the table. I have used the activeX object: Microsoft Web Browser

Problem: After I successfully navigate to the new URL and then close the form and try to return to normal duties, the toolbars freezes up. (I can't go from design view to query or form view...etc)

I noticed this only happens after I use the web browser! The specific tool bar that freezes up is the "query datasheet". I am forced to shut the whole application down and start over.

I think explorer is causing this or Access doesn't know what to do once the form is closed. I tried adding a close form on exit macro but this still does not work.

Any idea how to solve this problem or how to simply use a different browser (firefox) as an activeX plug IN??

Here is my simple code

Private Sub web_Enter()
If Len([Link]) > 0 Then

web.Navigate URL:=[Link]

Else
MsgBox ("Record not available!")

End If

End Sub

I found the solution myself!

Just create a customized toolbar with the buttons you need and don't use
any of Access default toolbars!

Got it to work!

I'm a die hard c# developer, developing win32 and web based enterprise apps for last few years. The development team I'm on is going down a path I feel is wrong. I scoping out the web to knock their solution but of course, an alternative is needed... 1) We need a complex client application 2) This client app will need to communicate with a local (same box) and remote server 3) It will need to read/write to the local file system

I am getting error in a vbscript: ActiveX component cant create object: Excel.Application. The vbscript code is: Dim objExcel Set objExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application") I am pretty sure it is a permission issue because the script works when I point the browser directly at the .htm file on the c: drive: c:\inetpub\wwwroot\DemoSite\VbScriptTest.htm

Hi. I've never created an ActiveX control before, so I know little about what it is capable of and what its limitations are. My problem is this: I have to create a way to send multiple documents from the web server to a printer on the user's network. The way it works today the user has to manually download each document and send it to his printer, but now they want me to create an automated process. Will I be able to download documents...

Hey all! I was reading over at the IE Blog the other day http://http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/] and read some interesting, and encouraging news. According to Sunava Dutta, an IE Program Manager, starting in IE7 XMLHttpRequest will be a plain JavaScript object. It will still include the Microsoft.XMLHTTP ActiveX component for compatibility, but IMHO this is a very good shift for IE. What do you think?

Is there someway of getting it to be IE6 compatible (active x)? here's my code so far, because of the level of abstraction, i guess i would need to edit the prototype.js file? <script type="text/javascript" src="includes/javascript/prototype.js">

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
