I wanted to learn automation IE apps through EXcel.

below is one of the code that i saw in this site.
but, it doesnt work.

it throws an error “User-defined type not defined”

however, please provide good way to learn automating webapps.
Regarding, the references none of them are in my PC version Excel2007.

have to be download separately.?

Dim IeApp As InternetExplorer
Dim sURL As String
Dim IeDoc As Object
Dim i As Long

‘Create new instance of IE
Set IeApp = New InternetExplorer

‘Make it visible – some things don’t work
‘unless it’s visible
IeApp.Visible = True

‘define the page to open
sURL = “www.dicks – blog.com”

‘navigate to the page
IeApp.Navigate sURL

‘Pause the macro using a loop until the
‘page is fully loaded
Do
Loop Until IeApp.ReadyState = READYSTATE_COMPLETE

‘store the Document object
Set IeDoc = IeApp.Document

‘Loop through the links collection. Most collections
‘seem to be zero based, but it’s pretty much trial and
‘error for me
For i = 0 To IeDoc.Links.Length – 1
‘write the linking url to a cell
Cells(i + 1, 1).Value = IeDoc.Links(i).href
Next i

‘Clean up
Set IeApp = Nothing

Thankss,
Venkat

I like David’s code, I do some work with IE occasionally so I’ll test it out.

Thx,

I use this method quite often. Not as he used it giving IE the focus.

I created a function called GetIE that grabs a Website if already open and returns the IE object, or creates a new IE object.

Pretty useful in my opinion.
