Simple IE and winexist question

[spyro]

I recently saw ( somewhere on here ) a way to open IE and send it a URL can someone direct me to that link?

How do I tell a WinExists to activate any Program with *- Microsoft Internet Explorer.

I have tried If WinExists("- Microsoft Internet Explorer") Then

and I have tried If WinExists("* - Microsoft Internet Explorer") Then

Nither appear to work.

Take a look at all the _IE* funtions in the help file.

_IEAttach() to be more specific.

This is what I use to run webpages with admin writes, this code should help you out......I user this code with a listview

$ret = _GUICtrlListViewGetItemText ($listview1, -1, 0)

; Set the RunAs parameters to use local adminstrator account

$USERNAME = "**********"

$PASSWORD = "************"

$DOMAIN = @LogonDomain

$RUN = 0 ; run indicator

; retrieve the cycle from commandline

If $CMDLINE[0] = 1 Then $RUN = $CMDLINE[1]

If $RUN = 0 Then

RunAsSet($username, $DOMAIN, $password)

$workingdir = @WorkingDir

If FileChangeDir("C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer") Then

Run("iexplore.exe")

WinWaitActive("site name in head at the top left corner") ; Ex. = blank - Microsoft Internet Explorer

Send("!d")

$x = StringFormat("%s", $ret)

Send($x & "{ENTER}")

FileChangeDir($workingdir)

Else

MsgBox(0, 'Debug', 'Could not change directory'); debug

EndIf

RunAsSet()

Endif

Wouldn't I need to test that IE loaded before I try to attach?

Sorry, I just reread your post.

Look at _IECreate()
