I have an app that simply opens a url using an inet control using the inet1.openurl method. It works fine at home but when I get to work (with a proxy server) the program will not open the URL. Instead it returns a "Proxy authorization required" http response message. I have tried setting "AccessType" to "icNamedProxy" with "Proxy" being set to my proxy server. I have also just used the default settings for inet (like at home) since icUseDefault is supposed to check the registry to find your connection settings. I know the problem is related to passing the user id and password to the proxy server before executing my "inet1.openurl" method. I have tried the inet1.username and inet1.password properties and setting them to my user id and password for the proxy server, but with no luck. Apparently the username and password properties for the inet control relate to the openurl method and not the proxy server.

Does anyone have any ideas to get around this? It seems like it should be something simple - but I'm startin' to lose hope! I didn't find any answers to this question in any other posts...

Thanks for looking!!
