I have an application that loads IE and iterates through web pages to
retrieve information from the page then activates specific controls to
retrieve the next page and iterate through that page for it's information,
etc, etc.
I have found many articles from people getting COMException errors when
trying to use Interop.SHDocVw from a windows service, so it's pretty
apparent to me that this is a difficult application to build, but I have yet
to find an article that explains either an alternative way to retrieve
information from a web page or that explains how to get Interop.SHDocVw to
work from an agent. I have tried running the agent under my own user account
that is a member of the machine Administrators group but I still get the
error. I have included the error below if someone can make more sense out
of it then I can.
Thanks in advance,
Jay A. Moritz

ShDocVw is not a server type component but a client type ActiveX component,
that means it should be properly hosted inside a visual control like a Form.
Services aren't able to host ActiveX controls.

Thank you Willy, but it does lead to a second question:
How do I get information out of a web page when I need to do it from a
windows service? Do you know of an object/class I can use?
Thanks in advance,

Jay,
You can use by instance the HTTPWebrequest/response classes
\\\
Module main
Public Sub main()
Dim myReg As Net.HttpWebRequ est = _
DirectCast(Net. WebRequest.Crea te("http://www.google.com" ), _
Net.HttpWebRequ est)
Dim myResp As Net.HttpWebResp onse = _
DirectCast(myRe g.GetResponse() , Net.HttpWebResp onse)
Dim myStream As IO.Stream = myResp.GetRespo nseStream()
Dim myreader As New IO.StreamReader (myStream)
Dim mystring As String = myreader.ReadTo End()
myResp.Close()
End Sub
End Module

I hope this helps a little bit?
