Code is simple... and there is no error in code (that VBA discerns) but the
sendkeys commands do not move the cursor in the new IE window and doesn't
send the active cell value either. Any thoughts?

Dim ie As Object
Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
With ie

.Visible = True

.navigate "http://whatever.com"
.resizable = True
End With

'App.Activate "Microsoft Internet Explorer"
SendKeys "{TAB}"
SendKeys ActiveCell.Value
SendKeys "~"
