Hi, trophyfish.
You can use InternetExplorer Object.
Set reference to Microsoft Internet Controls.

Dim IE As InternetExplorer
Set IE = New InternetExplorer
IE.ToolBar = False
IE.MenuBar = False
IE.Visible = True
IE.Navigate "http://www.vb-world.net"

I am not sure what you mean by copying text, because it's already build in Internet. Try this code and you'll see what I mean.

Good luck
Larisa
