bump

If you want to bump a post then at least include your original question: not everyone is using web "forums"...

It would also be helpful to post all of your IE-relevant code. Without seeing how you're loading the page it's less easy to
suggest fixes.

Automation of IE typically looks something like this:

ie.Navigate sURL
Do Until ie.ReadyState = 4
DoEvents
Loop

Try that instead of IE.busy

copy and paste?

Hello all.
I am currently developing some code to open an excel file from a
password protected intranet website. When i step through my code,
everything works fine, but when run normally my code will die at the if

application.workbooks.count=currentnumexcel statement(i.e. the code
executes faster then excel can open the file from ie?!).

I thought by having the While ie.busy loop, i would avoid this problem;

do i need to add something like while Excel is opening the file,
wait?? What's the correct syntax for this?


Thanks


<Code
currentnumexcel = Application.Workbooks.Count
frm.Click
While IE.Busy
DoEvents
Wend


' if opened new excel instance then copy otherwise prompt error


If Application.Workbooks.Count = currentnumexcel Then
Application.Workbooks(currentnumexcel).Activate
MsgBox URL & " could not be opened, please check your login
information", vbExclamation
Exit Function
Else
Set xlEroom = Application.Workbooks(Application.Workbooks.Count)
End If
'get application data
</code

Tim.

If using Google groups there's an option to reply under the "show options" link in the message header. This one includes the
original text (trim as appropriate) in your reply.

If using a newreader then set the appropriate option (depends on what you're using)
