Automation error usually indicates that the class cannot automatically 
allocate its own memory.  If the debug points to:
   Set Doc =3D Web.document
try using:
   Set Doc =3D CreateObject("Web.Document")
OR
   Set Doc =3D New Web.Document
if you are not creating a transactional class and don't need the SharedProp
ertyManager to be available.

  Hope this helps,

Hi Joe,

Did you try

   Set Web =3D New SHDocVw.InternetExplorer

just before you Web.navigate http://altavista.com/   ?

I ran it with the set and it worked fine.
