I'm trying to receive events from a running instance of Internet Explorer.
So far I've only been able to receive events from an instance I launch from
code, but I need to receive events from all running instances of Internet
Explorer (I mean those that the user launches himself).
I know this is possible because I did it three months ago. Unfortunately, I
can't find the code. I've already looked at all the Microsoft articles on
automating Internet Explorer, so please don't suggest those links.
Thanks in advance. 12 19611
Hello,
Thanks for your post. As I understand, you want to connect to a running
instance of Internet Explorer. If so, please refer to the KB article 176792.
HOWTO: Connect to a Running Instance of Internet Explorer http://support.microsoft.com/?id=176792
Hope this helps.

Thanks, but I've already seen this article, as all other Microsoft articles
that deal with connecting to Internet Explorer.
As in this article, I have code that cycles through ShellWindows and gets a
reference to each running instance of Internet Explorer. That's where I
connect to the IE events, but they simply don't fire.
static private SHDocVw.ShellWi ndows shellWindows = new
SHDocVw.ShellWi ndowsClass();
static private SHDocVw.DWebBro wserEvents2_Bef oreNavigate2Eve ntHandler
beforeNavigate2 ;
static private SHDocVw.DWebBro wserEvents2_New Window2EventHan dler newWindow2;
public static void Main()
{
foreach(SHDocVw .InternetExplor er ie in shellWindows)
{
MessageBox.Show ("ie.Locatio n:" + ie.LocationURL) ;
ie.BeforeNaviga te2 += beforeNavigate2 ;
ie.NewWindow2 += newWindow2;
}
}
The message box displays the URL, but the events simply don't fire.

Hello,
Thanks for your response. Based on my research, I am able to receive the IE
event on my side. I now share the following information with you:
1. You will need to create a WinForm application instead of Console
application.
2. I reviewed your code, it seems that the delegates are not mapped to
methods. Please refer to the following code snippet:
//--------------code snippet----------------------
public class Form1 : System.Windows. Forms.Form
{
static private SHDocVw.ShellWi ndows shellWindows = new
SHDocVw.ShellWi ndowsClass();
public Form1()
{
InitializeCompo nent();
foreach(SHDocVw .InternetExplor er ie in shellWindows)
{
MessageBox.Show ("ie.Locatio n:" + ie.LocationURL) ;
ie.BeforeNaviga te2 += new
SHDocVw.DWebBro wserEvents2_Bef oreNavigate2Eve ntHandler(this. ie_BeforeNaviga t
e2);
}
public void ie_BeforeNaviga te2(object pDisp , ref object url, ref
object Flags, ref object TargetFrameName , ref object PostData, ref object
Headers, ref bool Cancel)
{
MessageBox.Show ("event received!");
}
//----------------end of----------------------------
Please check it on your side.
Have a nice day!

Nope. Your code does exactly what my code does, and it doesn't fire the
event. I'm running Windows 2000 here. I'll test it tonight on Windows XP.
But this solution must work on Windows 2000 as well. Any ideas?

You're right. It works, but only under XP. I'm not receiving any events
under Windows 2000.
Is there a reason?

Hi,
As stated in my previous reply, it works properly on my Windows 2000
systems. I think more information is needed before moving forward:
1. Did you install .NET Framework 1.1 on your Windows 2000?
2. Did you apply Windows 2000 Service Pack 3?
3. What's the version of IE on your Windows 2000?
4. Please try my sample attached in my previous post.
I am standing by for your response.

Thank you for not abandoning me.
1. I have the .NET Framework 1.0.3705 and 1.1 installed (same as on my XP
system).
2. I have Windows 2000 with Service Pack 4.
3. I have Internet Explorer 6.0.2800.1106 with Service Pack 1 and Q828750.
4. I have tried your code, with the same result.
I know it shouldn't make any difference, but I should mention that on the
Windows 2000 system, I also have Visual Studio 6 installed. I had to go
through extensive tinkering as per the following article http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...us/dnvid/html/
msdn_videbuggin g.asp
to enable debugging in Interdev.
Also, it just occurred to me that I have Visual Studio .NET Professional
2002 on the Windows 2000 system, and Visual Studio .NET Enterprise Architect
2003 on the XP system.
Thanks again.

Hello,
Thanks for your reply. It's strage that I am not able to reproduce the
problem on my Windows 2000 test sytems with similar configuration (Win2K
SP4, IE6 SP1, .NET Framework 1.1). To narrow down the problem, I recommend
you build a new Windows 2000 system with .NET Framework 1.1 and check if
the problem persists on your side.
Hope this helps.

I take back what I said. Your executable works on all the Windows 2000
systems I've tried it on. But when I compile your source code using VS.NET
2002 the event doesn't fire on the two computers that have VS.NET 2002
installed, but it fires on a clean Windows 2000 system with just the .NET
Framework 1.1 installed and no VS.NET.
I will try compiling the same code on XP with VS.NET 2003, then run it on
the same Windows 2000 computers to see if it has to do with VS.NET 2002, but
right now it looks like the culprit.

I need to automate Internet Explorer in a very simple way.

3. Click a button somewhere on the screen with the mouse left button
(I'm not sure this button can be pressed directly via keysequence, not
via mouse, but it does have a name).
