Worked great! Thanks! However it works in an MFC App, it does not when I use it in IE as an ActiveX, which is what I was shooting for.

First, it it works, I suggest you formally accept my Answer.

You did not ask anything about IE. This is completely different story. Please ask another Question and explain properly what were you trying to achieve and what seems to be a problem.

Thank you,
