Re: Add a button to IE command bar

Patrick Jackman a écrit :
Thanks very much for this information Jean-Fabrice.

I was able to create a button quite easily, but I can't imagine how I would have a VB 6.0 exe automate IE's Save As to persist the current web page to disk and grab the name of that file.

Maybe I'm going about this all wrong. I see that it is possible to embed an IE ActiveX into an Access form. What forum would I ask questions like "how can I save the current page to disk"?

Is it possible to add a command bar button to the IE browser in the way that
you can with Outlook and have it call some VBA code?

I want to provide a button that when clicked will save the current web page
to a pre-determined folder and add an entry into an Access database. I am an
Access developer so I'm familiar with VBA but I'm not sure how to tackle
this task. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

You can find documentation on how to add a toolbar button to IE here :

Hope this helps.



You can do that by connecting to the WebBrowser object and use IPersistStream to retrieve the source code.
I don't know how to do that in VB, always did it in C++.
