Hi Marty
I have Windows Script Host Object Model Referenced
It still fails on the line FSO As New Scripting.FileSystemObject
The reference file is...
C:\Windows\System32\wshom.ocx
I have it at the top (Welll 3rd at least) of the available references
Can you remove you reference to it and decompile to see if it fails on that
line for you??
Many thanks
Darren

Reference for scripting filesystem object Wshom.ocx Windows Script Host
Model generically known as WSH
You should be getting Http Url printed out with asterix in debug window if
it is working, before it is placed in the memo field, maybe a typo name
error in table or code
The code to test validity of url could be something like this with request
status being returned as 404 or 500 for invalid just like http error codes;
200 for normal or good
The response Debug.Print HttpReq.StatusText will give you a better
explanation.
You should have some version of XML installed if using IE 6.0
'?testurlxml("http://www.microsoft.com")
Function testurlxml(strURL As String) As String
Dim HttpReq As Object
Set HttpReq = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")
HttpReq.Open "GET", strURL, False
HttpReq.send
'Debug.Print HttpReq.responseText 'this is returned html string
Debug.Print HttpReq.Status
Debug.Print HttpReq.StatusText
testurlxml = HttpReq.Status '200 normal End Function
You can also verify legality of url string Private Declare Function
PathIsURL Lib "shlwapi.dll" _
Alias "PathIsURLA" _
(ByVal pszPath As String) As Long
Private Function IsPathAURL(ByVal sPath As String) As Boolean
'Tests a given string to determine if it
'conforms to a valid URL format. Returns
'True if sPath has a valid URL format,
'or False otherwise.
'This function does not verify that the
'path points to an existing site, only
'that it has a valid URL format.
IsPathAURL = PathIsURL(sPath) = 1
End Function
