No luck, huh? :)
garb (copy) that path
C:WINDOWS\system32\shdocvw.dll
the in the References window click on browse
then paste the full path in the 'File name'
hit enter.

Should do the trick.

I found this info in order to reference the "shdocvw" object, but the

there another way to reference it directly? I am running Excel 2003 SP3.
I did a Search for "shdowvw" in my pc and found several shdocvw.dll files in
different folders, like in C:WINDOWS\system32 for example. Can I reference
this directly? if so how?

"The References dialog box lists all the objects available to Visual Basic.
You access the dialog box by selecting Tools/References from the menu bar..
Figure 3-5 shows the References dialog box with a reference set to the
Internet Explorer object library. The proper reference is described in the
dialog box as "Microsoft Internet Controls." "

Thanks in advance.
