IE Downloadcomplete

[Davew01]

I am trying to detect when a web page has completely downloaded in Internet Explorer to trigger another event in VB.net application to update a textbox with the URL currently shown in the IE address box. I can easily do it in a Win form using "Webbrowser1.naviagated" as shown below:



Private Sub webBrowser1_Navigated(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As WebBrowserNavigatedEventArgs) Handles WebBrowser1.Navigated

Textbox1.Text = Me.WebBrowser1.Url.ToString()

End Sub



But when trying to detect the same type of event using an IE object in a running instance of Internet Explorer I cannot find an equivalent method. If tried something like the following:



Public Sub OpenDirecTVWebButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles OpenDirecTVWebButton.Click

Dim objIE As SHDocVw.InternetExplorer

Dim objShellWins As SHDocVw.ShellWindows

objShellWins = New SHDocVw.ShellWindows

objIE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")

objIE.Navigate("http://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/index.jsp")

objIE.Visible = True

Textbox1.Text = objIE.LocationURL

End Sub



I cannot seem to get IE "downloadcomplete" to properly fire so that I can update the my textbox with the most current URL. I need a sub routine/event handler that will fire when a web page has downloaded or the URL has changed in a running standalone instance of IE.



Thanks
