SHDocVw.ShellWindows not working in Windows Server 2008

Hi..all

I found one problem Windows Server 2008.
please refer the following
code. it gives me the "ieplorer.exe" while i am
running this code in XP
or 2003, but while I am running this code in
Windows Server 2008 it is
not giving me the proper result. it gives me
"Explorer.EXE" insted
"ieplorer.exe".

before run this command you have to add
reference of shdocvw.dll in
your project. i am using the VB 6.0

1. Dim IE As SHDocVw.InternetExplorer
2. Dim MainIE as SHDocVw.InternetExplorer
3. Dim sws As SHDocVw.ShellWindows
4. Dim ie As SHDocVw.InternetExplorer
5.
6. Set sws = New
SHDocVw.ShellWindows
7. For Each ie In sws
8. Debug.Print ie.Name
9. If ie.Hwnd=TmpStoredHandle then
10. Set MainIE =IE
11. Exit For
12. End IF
13. Next


With the Help of above code my MainIE Object
will set to my
Previously stored handle( In TmpStoredHandle)
.
Does anybody know that how can i get the
existing IE(Opened
Internet Explorer) detail with the help of
SHDocVw.ShellWindows in
Windows Server 2008?

I have also try to get the same thing with the
help of EnumWindows
AddressOf GetTopWindows, ByVal 0&
with this API i can get all the opened windows
with Its handle, but i
dont know that how can i set my MainIE
object with help of this
handle.

Can anybody help me?
Thanks in Advance

Is there anyway to get that windows information?

snkt shah,

[start side note]

I doubt your posting over at wrox will get many replies so try http://www.vbforums.com if you cannot get any help here. Sorry I don't have win serv 2k8 so I have no idea.

Good Luck

snkt shah, regardless of what OS you are using, your code seems to be wrong in any case :eek:

It looks like you're trying to enumerate all the IE windows.
With The first segment of code you have added, you can actually use to enumerate both IE as well as Windows Explorer windows. For IE, you use the Location proeprty ( not sure about full name )
For Windows Explorer, you'll need the path property :)

You could always use the FindWindow and FindWindowEx properties as well, but just remember that, with IE 7, there is some differences in getting certain info than there was in IE 6
