Let us take the ethernet cards for example. Apart from every computer on the internet having an IP address, each ethernet computer has a 48-bit MAC address. This is the Media Access Control Layer and along with the LLC (logic link layer) compose the entire Data Link Layer in an ethernet example.

Click References on the Project menu and select the Microsoft Scripting Runtime. If the Microsoft Scripting Runtime does not appear in the list, browse for Scrrun.dll on your system. Install one of the tools listed previously if necessary. Add four CommandButton controls to Form1. The CommandButton controls demonstrate the following functionality. Now open the Office apps and test its controls. You must remember that when you would open your workbook with embedded active control, the.exd files be recreated created again, but it would not cause any issues. In this way, the Excel VBA ActiveX controls problem would be resolved.

I'm looking to create a VBA macro which will be ran from Excel (2003 or 2010) & which works with Internet Explorer. I have added 'Microsoft Internet Controls' to VBA References, and have looked at plenty of VBA code on the forum which opens & then navigates to specific websites. I have been writing VBA code for MS Access for years, but am starting my first project that will need to retrieve data from the Internet. I have come across code samples that use 'Microsoft Internet Controls' and 'Microsoft HTML Object Library', and I can make them available references in VBA, and available methods and fields etc. Show when writing code, but I cannot find any documentation for. If you've used the Web Browser control in Access, you are already familiar with the capabilities of IE's Object Model. All of the functionality in IE's object model (not counting external support, like scripting support etc.) is provided by the following two DLLs: shdocvw.dll (Microsoft Internet Controls) mshtml.tlb (Microsoft HTML Object Library). Once you add the FM20.DLL, you can see the Microsoft Forms 2.0 Object Library” is added to the reference list Microsoft Forms 2.0 Object library Categories Excel-Macro-VBA, Reference Libraries Tags FM20.DLL, Microsoft Forms 2.0 Object Library, MSForms.DataObject, References- VBAProject, system32, Visual Basic Editor (VBE) 2 Comments.

In order to control the Internet Explorer web browser, VBA needs 2 additional reference libraries:

Microsoft HTML Object Library and Microsoft Internet Controls

Here’s how to add them…

Open the VBA Editor, and click Tools > References…

Make sure these 4 References are active by default:

  • Visual Basic for Applications
  • Microsoft Excel xx.x Object Library
  • OLE Automation
  • Microsoft Office xx.x Object Library

Scroll down a tick these 2 web-related References:

  • Microsoft HTML Ojbect Library
  • Microsoft Internet Controls

Resulting in…

I've shamelessly stolen my colleague Andrew's idea to create this blog, showing how to fill in an Internet Explorer (IE) form from within VBA. I've also shamelessly borrowed ideas from Fergus Cairns - thanks, Fergus.

We'll create a macro in VBA to fill in the search form on the old Wise Owl site (now superseded, but the principle remains the same).

Note that our website has changed since this blog was written, so while the principle of the code shown below is still good, it won't work on our site. I've published a newer blog on the same subject here - or you can see a full list of all of our VBA training resources here.

Understanding the Target Page

The first thing to do is to know what the elements on the target website page are called. To do this, load the website in IE and view its source HTML:

In Internet Explorer 9, this is how you view source HTML using the right mouse button menu.

If you press CTRL + F to find some known text (eg Search for this page), you should be able - eventually - to track down the part of the form of interest:

Microsoft Internet Controls Vba

The HTML for the search button on the Wise Owl website.

See the end of this blog for the BBC and Google UK search form field names.

From the above we can see that the search form with id search contains two controls which a user can interact with:

  1. A textbox called SearchBox; and
  2. A button called submit2.

Now that we know what we're trying to look to in the Document Object Model, we can start writing our VBA.

Referencing the Microsoft Internet Controls

The next thing to do is to make sure that we can get VBA to talk to Internet Explorer. To do this, reference the object library called Microsoft Internet Controls (if you're not sure what references are, read this first).

First, in VBA create a reference:

Choose the option shown from the VBA code editor (this example is for Excel).

Select Microsoft Internet Controls (you may find it helpful to type an M in first, to go down to the object libraries starting with M):

Tick the Microsoft Internet Controls object library reference

Vba Microsoft Internet Controls

Select OK. If you choose the menu option again, you'll see this reference has moved to near the top of the list:

The libraries referenced always include Excel. The one you just chose appears near the top of the list.

The Code to Link to IE

You can now write the code to link to Internet Explorer - here's a suggestion:

Sub UseInternetExplorer()

'Make sure you've set a reference to the

'Microsoft Internet Controls object library first

'create a variable to refer to an IE application, and

'start up a new copy of IE (you could use GetObject

'to access an existing copy of you already had one open)

Dim ieApp AsNew SHDocVw.InternetExplorer

'make sure you can see this new copy of IE!

ieApp.Visible = True

'go to the website of interest

ieApp.Navigate 'Wise Owl or other website address goes here'

'wait for page to finish loading

DoWhile ieApp.busy

Mo creatures mod download mac. Loop

'get a reference to the search form, by finding its id in the

'web page's document object model

Dim ieElement AsObject

Set ieElement = ieApp.document.getElementByID('search')

'search box is composed of text box (item 0) and button (item 1)

'set value of text box to what we're searching for

ieElement(0).Value = 'Excel VBA courses'

'click the button!

ieElement(1).Click

EndSub

If you run this macro, it should search the Wise Owl site for information on Excel VBA courses!

Except that it might not - timing is everything. You may need to delay your code to wait for Internet Explorer or your website to catch up - see below.

Delaying your code

Unfortunately, code runs really quickly and websites load slowly (at least relatively), so you often need to slow your code down with loops like this:

'wait for page to finish loading

DoWhile ieApp.Busy

DoEvents

Loop

Or possibly even this:

'wait for page to finish loading

DoWhile ieApp.Busy And Not ieApp.ReadyState = READYSTATE_COMPLETE

DoEvents

Loop

It seems to be more or less guesswork how many you put in!

BBC and Google Help

Fergus Cairns informs me that you can substitute the following terms for the BBC website and Google UK:

Website Search box Find button
Google UKgbqfqbtnG
BBC UKorb-search-qorb-search-button

So at the time of writing this (September 2014) the following code works - usually!

Sub FillInBBCSearchForm()

'Make sure you've set a reference to the

'Microsoft Internet Controls object library first

'create a variable to refer to an IE application

Dim ieApp AsNew SHDocVw.InternetExplorer

'make sure you can see this new copy of IE!

ieApp.Visible = True

'go to the website of interest

ieApp.Navigate 'http://www.google.co.uk'

DoWhile ieApp.Busy

DoEvents

Loop

'wait for page to finish loading

DoWhile ieApp.Busy And Not ieApp.ReadyState = READYSTATE_COMPLETE

DoEvents

Loop

Loop

'click on the search button

EndSub

Notice that I've put in a fairly random number of loops to slow this down!
