I think the version of IE and the doctype might make a difference but I haven't used it since before IE8 was release so I'm not sure, this worked on several sites: Public IE As Object Private Sub Command1_Click() 'create new IE window Set IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application") IE.Visible = True IE.Navigate2 "http://www.google.com/search?&q=visual+basic+automate+IE8" Do While IE.ReadyState <> READYSTATE_COMPLETE Sleep 100 DoEvents Loop End Sub Private Sub Command2_Click() 'end program Set IE = Nothing Unload Me End Sub Private Sub Command3_Click() IE.document.documentElement.scrollTop = Text1.Text DoEvents Command4.Value = True End Sub Private Sub Command4_Click() Label1.Caption = IE.document.documentElement.scrollTop DoEvents End Sub Mike

It doesn't work for me in IE6. According to the docs, document.documentElement returns the HTML element. That does have a scrollTop property, but for me it returns 0 always and setting it doesn't work. And I don't see why it should. HTML is not a visible element. What's wrong with using Body.scrollTop? I think that works since IE4. The MS page for this... http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms533739(v=VS.85).aspx ....says that documentElement is defined by the W3C DOM. And my object browser (with IE6) lists a full range of properties for HTMLhtmlElement. But it seems that not all of them work. Maybe MS just added them all to conform to the W3C, without bothering to back them up. The HTML element only had a handful of properties as of IE4, and no events. By IE6 it seems they've suddenly added all properties and events to all elements! There's even a click event and a cloneNode method for <HTML>. That doesn't make any sense at all. In any case, if you're distributing code beyond your own PC it should work at least back to IE6. Last I heard (fairly recently) IE6 is still the most-used version of IE and is likely to stay so for some time because a lot of corporate intranet code depends on it. (And a lot of people still use XP, which came with IE6.) | Public IE As Object | | Private Sub Command1_Click() | 'create new IE window | Set IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application") | IE.Visible = True | IE.Navigate2 | "http://www.google.com/search?&q=visual+basic+automate+IE8" | Do While IE.ReadyState <> READYSTATE_COMPLETE | Sleep 100 | DoEvents | Loop | End Sub | | Private Sub Command2_Click() | 'end program | Set IE = Nothing | Unload Me | End Sub | | Private Sub Command3_Click() | IE.document.documentElement.scrollTop = Text1.Text | DoEvents | Command4.Value = True | End Sub | | Private Sub Command4_Click() | Label1.Caption = IE.document.documentElement.scrollTop | DoEvents | End Sub | | Mike

It should work in all versions from IE4 up. I've never heard of MS breaking any of the DOM functionality. There should be no need to test for IE versions.
