    Runtime error '-1 (ffffffff)' HELP!

    I'm trying to make a program that accesses a website through VB6 and the Webbroswer and fills in info automatically.

    For some reason when the webpage comes up on the the webbroswer, I get the message "Runtime error '-1 (ffffffff)'".

    I'm using IE7. I've heard that there may be some incompatibility with it and webbroswer. Is there anything that I can do, aside from uninstalling IE7 (since I work on the company computer) that will resolve this?

    Thanks!

    Hi ,

    Are you using the VB 6 Inet Control to open the website on the browser.

    thanks

      No, I'm using the Webbroswer Control. Should I use Inet?

        Not sure about the Webbroswer Control but I had implemented a project with the Inet Control.

        thanks

          Found the solution! Go to

          look for 'Dagger' -- his solution on changing the registry values in Windows worked like a charm!

          Thanks!
