2019 R3 Build 2803

 

 

Got a window w/ a Microsoft Web Browser OLE Control on it.

I have a user who can't get to a url I set and send via :

ole_1.Object.Navigate(ls_URL)

 

This is what they get in the control:

However, the user can successfully navigate to the URL if it's entered in manually. 

 

I'm trying to look at the "OLE Control Properties" and "OLE Control Help" but clicking either button does nothing.

I'd like to be able to debug the control; see what's going on w/ this particular user.

 

Thx!

Hi Darren;

  I would suggest trying PB 2022 R3's built-in Web Browser control based on Microsoft's WebView2 engine (also in PB 2019 R3) & see if that allows your URL to be processed ok. Food for thought.

CORRECTION: 

The webpage DOES show but not until after 20+ seconds. I've tried a few sites and apparently it waits 20+ on each one.

Once shown, navigating thru the site is normal, no unusual wait times. So why so slow to pop up? and can I quicken this? My users won't like the unnecessary waiting. 

 

THX

Trying the Web Browser control and can't get it to navigate anywhere -or it's just not showing.

Return code is 1 (successful) but control stays blank.

 

Integer li_rtn
li_rtn = wb_1.Navigate("http://www.appeon.com")
if li_rtn <> 1 then messagebox('li_rtn', 'error code: ' + string(li_rtn))
