MS Access Forum / ActiveX Controls / October 2007Access and Microsoft WebControl
Also posted to microsoft.public.inetsdk.programming.webbrowser_ctl. 1. I'm wondering if any of my fellow Access developers have had any luck getting the WebBrowser control to properly resize. I'm finding that if I add the control to a form and set it's size, once I've opened the browser it's size if forever-after locked at the first opened size. I'm trying to use: Private Sub Form_Resize() Me!WebBrowser1.Move 0, 600, Me.Width, Me.Section(0).Height - 600 End Sub 600 is the height of the navigation control set. 2. I thought I had a working solution for saving the current document to file without prompting the user using this approach: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;en-us;q244757, but it doesn't give me the same page as doing a Save As. Has anyone been able to get at the current page HTML using the WebBrowser.Document property, or by some other means? Patrick =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Patrick Jackman Vancouver, BC 604-874-5774 Hi, have you tried to use left, top, width. height properties? Is your control inserted directly on a form or tab control?

Close it, open it again, resize it and then cut and paste it back in. Yes, it's really weird! SignatureDavid W.

AKAIK there's no known solution for the resize problem with the webbrowser control in access forms. Workaround: As this problem is strictly related to access forms but does not occur for other containers do the following: First place a "Microsoft Forms 2.0 Frame" ActiveX control on the form which will serve as a container for the webcontrol. Doubleclick it to change in edit mode. Then in the uppopping toolbox rightclick under the controls collection an click "More controls...". Choose MS Webbrowser from list and check it - click OK . A new icon for the webbrowser control will now appear in toolbox. Click it and draw a rectangle in die frame control. Now you can resize the web control either in forms design mode or using VBA code. (To reference the control, e.g.: Me.Frame1.Object.Controls("Webbrowser1").Height ...unit is pixels) 2. You can save a HTMLDocument if you have a definition for the IPersistFile interface in any library of your projects references: Private Sub SaveHTMLDoc(sFilename as String) Dim IPF As IPersistFile Set IPF = Me!Webbrowser1.Object.Document IPF.Save sFilename, False Set IPF = Nothing End Sub A libray with an IPersistfile definition is the accwiz.dll in office folder. Put it in your references and change above code replacing IPersistFile with IWizPersistfile. Ciao, Sascha Wow. Thanks very very much for this information Sascha. I had given up on finding a solution to the problem. I'll give this a try in the next few days and let you know how it goes.

I am trying to print the contents of the webcontrol using ExecWb but I just get a syntax error. I'm not sure how to properly connect to the webcontrol to use ExecWb (it easily works for a webcontrol not inside a Frame).
