_IEError

[Jury]

I've tried this again and this doesn't seem to work and I'm not sure what is the best way to do this or that there may be hidden problems. 

Depending on which of three databases the user has chosen  (each having its own WindowTitle) I want to attach to that WindowTitle.

Local $oIE = _IEAttach("Deportation Decisions")
If _IEErrorNotify() Then 
Local $oIE = _IEAttach("Refugee/Protection Decisions")
EndIf
If _IEErrorNotify() Then 
Local $oIE = _IEAttach("Residence Decisions")
EndIf

Thanks,

jury

Calling _IEErrorNotify() is not the proper way to check if the _IEAttach was successfully. You need to be checking the value of @error.

Depending on which of three databases the user has chosen  (each having its own WindowTitle) I want to attach to that WindowTitle.

 

How does the user specify the desired database?

Thanks Danp2 - they click on a link on the page which navigates (i.e. doesn't open a new window) to the chosen database.

Will the desired tab always be active when you call your routine? If so, then perhaps >this function will help.

so I call this function like this?

$oIE = _IEGetActiveTab()

[Danp2]

Correct.
