Hi,

In this code I create an IE and call up a web page. I have the process ID and the SHDocVw.WebBrowser for the IE.

How can I get the SHDocVw.InternetExplorer?


        protected virtual void StartBrowserInSeparateTask()
        {
            System.Diagnostics.Process procId;
            //procId = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("C:\\Program Files\\Internet Explorer\\IEXPLORE.EXE");
            procId = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("IEXPLORE.EXE");
            // for every shell/browser
            SHDocVw.ShellWindows shellWindows = new SHDocVw.ShellWindows();
            SHDocVw.InternetExplorer browser;
            foreach (SHDocVw.WebBrowser webBrowser in shellWindows)
            {
                uint dwPID;
                if (!webBrowser.FullName.ToLower().Contains("iexplore .exe"))
                {
                    Debug.WriteLine(string.Format(" {0} is not a web browser", webBrowser.FullName));
                    continue;
                }
                Carefx.Tools.Win32Api.GetWindowThreadProcessId(new IntPtr(webBrowser.HWND), out dwPID);
                if (dwPID == procId.Id)
                {
                    // if the document is not ready, go on to the next
                    while (webBrowser.ReadyState != SHDocVw.tagREADYSTATE.READYSTATE_COMPLETE)
                    {
                        Thread.Sleep(200);
                    }
                    //this.browser = webBrowser;
                }
            }

        }

This is a VB forum, you know... (But who knows, someone might know...)

I realized that after I posted.

But .net is pretty much the same in VB and C#.
