I also had multiple windows open, so to catch why it was failing, I added a couple of debug.prints to the procedure.
Any time debug.print produced a null, the procedure would fail.
It could be my machine because if you remember I had the DDE issue( which worked fine until I compiled ) that started
this thread.

OK, thanks. I may have to alter that little snippet of code....

One thing I did notice is that whenever I add a reference for Microsoft Internet Controls, the dll
that's used is ieframe.dll ( as displayed in the reference dialog ) and not SHdocVw.dll
although SHdocVw is what is displayed in the Object Browser.

Yeah, I suppose they've had to shore up that particular dll on several
occasions so much so that a new dll was in order. I'm glad you found
your way through the mine field...
