Displaying HTML Content with a Web Browser Control in Visual Basic - Embedding a web browser control into a Windows form

(Page 2 of 4 )

Create a Visual Basic project, in this case, a prjWB to investigate the web browser control. In order to use this control you need to add the web browser control. Click on the Project menu, and from the drop down click on Components. This brings up the components window with the default controls tab in view. Uncheck Selected Items Only to reveal all the items. Scroll down until you come to Microsoft Internet controls. Place a check mark against the Microsoft Internet Controls that reference the C:windowssytem32 shdocvw.dll and check Selected Items Only so that the Components window shows only this control. Then click the Apply button as shown in Fig.1. This adds an icon to the tool box which appears as a small blue globe. Close the window.
