    Hi,
    This time again in gr8 trouble. MS Web Browser Control is not visible in VB6 IDE. I go to Menu Project>>Components. No components with this name is visible. Even when I try to add the actual file ieframe.dll (I believe this is the control, am I wrong?), it gives error "... cannot be registered as ActiveX control...". What I noticed is, I didn't have ieframe.dll in my system32 folder previously. I just downloaded it and manually installed the dll. Please suggest some workaround. I want to add a Web Browser control into my Standard EXE based project.
    Alternative ActiveX if any, please suggest.

    Thanks in advance!

    you need to not use ieframe.dll ...do this and it will work fine....click project then click reference the browse to C windows system32 and look for shdocvw.dll use this instead of ieframe.dll and you will get no errors...cheers...:)
