Inet stillexecuting issue

[Rick H]

I am using inet to read the html of some websites and return the data as a string. I am using the open url method.

e.g

html_source = Inet1.OpenURL(site_str & folder)

The program thread waits here until the inet control returns the html (or generates an error)

However, the code is running in a loop so comes back around to read the next webpage. This sometimes generates an error '35764 - Still executing last request'

How can this be possible? I have already got the html e.g the request. What is the control still doing?

I have added this code

While Inet1.StillExecuting
   DoEvents
Wend

to prevent this error, even though I don't understand why its occuring!

Also could I change it do this?

While Inet1.StillExecuting
   Inet1.Cancel
   DoEvents
Wend

would this be better than the above code as it will attempt to cancel the operation rather than wait?

Thanks

While inet.still executing u should apply goto statement witha label showing a msgbox. or u can apply if statement and then u can apply a code to show a msgbox.

If u have got ur html text then u can use inet1.can. ahev u tried on error resume next or goto?
