I would like to use a AxSHDocVw.WebBroswer control in a Windows service-
is this possible without creating a form? I added the reference I usually
use to add this object in a Windows Application but only SHDocVw appears
under References in the Solution Explorer.
I wonder why you would want to use a visual control in a service which
doesn't provide a user interface.

I'm writing a service that will connect to a website on a regular basis,
retrieve information, and then update external devices- this works fine as
an application but I would rather not use task scheduler to run it and a
service sounds like the best method for this. I started out using
HttpWebRequest but was not successful logging into the website with it-
axWebBrowser worked nicely.
I tried using the common component WebBrowser instead of the ActiveX one but
ran into problems accessing the DOM. I tried creating a HTMLDocument
variable and setting it equal to WebBrowser.Document but encountered a
"specified cast is not valid" error. Using the debugger to look at the
WebBrowser.Document property lead me to a "cannot obtain value" message- the
WebBrowser had loaded a webpage so I'm stuck there with that one, and stuck
with the event handler on SHDocVw.WebBrowser.
