Default Web Access Timeout

Nigel

Create a date variable and check NOW vs some start time

Dim StartTime as Date

StartTime = Now

Do Until oIE.ReadyState = READYSTATE_COMPLETE Or
(Now-StartTime)TimeValue("00:00:15")

DoEvent
Loop

Hi All

I am using the following code to wait for an Internet call to complete.

Do Until oIE.ReadyState = READYSTATE_COMPLETE
DoEvents
Loop

My problem is that on occasions the web site may not respond or the netwok
is slow, in this situation I would like to timeout the session after say

15
seconds. I have looked at using the Application.OnTime event but have not
been successful.

Any thoughts?

TIA
Cheers
Nigel
