Webbrowser control problem. Tested well in IDE. Failed to run as an Exe.

[bPrice]

Everything is fine when I run tests in the IDE.
After I made a exe, and tried to run it as I did in the IDE, I got the error message, shown below:



I was able to start the exe and make the webbrowser to navigate to a site. Then I ran into problems in this part:

Private Sub cmdStart_Click()
    CaptureData
    oDomRev.getElementsByClassName("arrow_container").Item(0).children.Item(3).Click
    Timer1.Enabled = True
    Timer1.Interval = 15000
End Sub
 
Private Sub CaptureData()
    Dim oResultTable As HTMLHtmlElement
    Dim i As Integer, l As Integer
    Set oResultTable = oDomRev.getElementById("theID")
    l = oResultTable.getElementsByTagName("tr").length - 1
    For i = 0 To l
        Debug.Print oResultTable.getElementsByTagName("tr").Item(i).children.Item(6).innerHTML
        strHTMLRev = strHTMLRev & oResultTable.getElementsByTagName("tr").Item(i).children.Item(6).innerHTML & vbNewLine
    Next i
End Sub

Note that it runs well in the IDE. I only got the error *after compilation*

Ok come back to check this post.
Seems this time nobody is gonna help me out ...

Do you have any DoEvents in your Code (direct or indirect behind some of your own Method-calls)?
Or is that "OutOfProcess-Remoting"?

The error you've shown suggests a "Zombie" (an Object-Var or Property
which still has a Pointer assigned - and therefore is not Nothing - but
otherwise already dead.

As said, can happen (especially within Event-Handlers), when Re-Entrancy
is involved, or OutOfProcess-COM-Marshalling.

Cannot say much more.

Too much we don't know.

For example, how have you managed page-load state? Anything causing navigation will pull the rug out from under object references to elements in the rendered HTML page. "Runs in IDE" might suggest "runs by luck at all" - in other words a page-state timing issue. Handling DocumentComplete properly is important.
