I have a simple windows app that I enhanced starting from an MDI example
program that came with the public domain Dev C++ IDE (I'm running on win95.)
I wanted to enhance it to access internet explorer utilizing the COM
interface for mshtml.dll and shdocvw.dll. I don't have vc++ so I accessed
the free 3hr demo of Visual Studio Net provided on a microsoft server (which
incidentally can be accessed
repeatedly -http://vs03-us.protier.com/Admin/Skins/VS03-US/vssignup.aspx?sou
rce=print_ad). I pasted my code into a visual studio net session on their
server and it compiles and runs just fine (It accesses a currently running
IE process and iterates through the controls on the current HTML document
using an mshtml element interface.)

My question is, how do I get this to run on my machine which is using win95?
I have been unsuccessful thus far. The COM interfaces for internet explorer
have been there since IE version 4.0 (I'm at IE ver 5.X). I have
mshtml.dll, mshtml.tlb, shdocvw.dll on my machine, and running OleView on
them shows all the expected COM interfaces.

I know there's no point trying to compile the COM portion of my code on my
machine, as the headers produced by vc++ for mshtml and shdocvw contain
microsoft-specific c++ constructs. I tried downloading the exe on machine -
no good. I put all the COM stuff in a seperate obj file, compiled on the vc
server, and successfully linked it on my machine, but a crash occurs when
the COM portions are executed on my machine.

Any ideas?
