Need help with VB6 method of changing IE settings from VBdesktop app

Hello,

I am building a custom web browser app using VB6 and the web browser control.

In order to keep the custom browser from timing out while trying to open, I am required to open my IE browser, go to Tools, Internet Options and change my settings so that IE does not look for the most current web page. I have to set it to "Never."

Can anyone advise me how to programmatically change the settings within the VB code of my browser app?

Many thanks in advance.

Greetings, Kirk!

This seems to suggest going/staying with browser of your choice:

Look for this title: Using the WebBrowser Control from Visual Basic

Please post your code if this does not work. Reply, nonetheless, if it does...

Have fun!
