vb controling the topmost instance of IE

[pilot_kof]

if anyone here has had the same headache I have had I am posting this for you. I have a program that controls IE with events the only problem with this you cannot have an array with events so my users were limited to using only the single instance of IE. If they opened a new window it was no use so here is my code to control the instance of IE with focus...

Private Declare Function GetForegroundWindow Lib "user32" () As Long
Public WithEvents IE As SHDocVw.InternetExplorer
 
Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
Dim strTitle As String
Dim lngRet As Long
 
lngRet = GetForegroundWindow() ' Get the handle of the foreground window.
On Error Resume Next
If (lngRet <> IE.hwnd) Then
    Set objShell = New Shell
    For Each obj In objShell.Windows
        If TypeName(obj.Document) = "HTMLDocument" Then
            If obj.hwnd = lngRet Then
                Set IE = obj
            End If
        End If
    Next obj
End If
End Sub
