Hi Dave, Thanks for the explaination. :) I did try it without the domain but it still gave me the same 403 error. I'm quite puzzled, this should work. Could it be something wrong with my server? I can upload files through an ftp program, is there a way to upload a file through ftp within the 1.1 framework? ~D~

If you want to persist anyway, get prepared for some P/Invoking. There isnt a function SetDisplayColorDepth() or so; instead you need access to the following Win32 functions (below is C# syntax): [DllImport("user32.dll")] public static extern int EnumDisplaySettings (string deviceName, int modeNum, ref DEVMODE1 devMode ); [DllImport("user32.dll")] public static extern int ChangeDisplaySettings(ref DEVMODE1 devMode, int flags); for which you also would need a number of constants and the DEVMODE1 struct; then add some C# or VB code to obtain the supported settings, find the one you want, and set it. If you havent done P/Invoke before, dont bother. Try something simpler first. :) Luc Pattyn try { [Search CP Articles] [Search CP Forums] [Forum Guidelines] [My Articles] } catch { [Google] }

Well I tried these suggestions and all I kept getting is that there was no instance set to an object and I've tried it many different ways and nothing BUT, I did find this article about Singletons which is letting me do exactly what I want. :) So for anyone that is having toubles like this here a good place to start looking >> http://www.codeproject.com/vb/net/Simple_Singleton_Forms.asp[^]

Well I feel kind of silly because just a few hours after I posted this question I found the answer I was looking for and again with the information I found on this site I was able to do what my users wanted. :-O But in my defence I did look around for many hours before asking! :) Let me take the time though to say that this site and the people coming to it to help absolutely ROCK! I have not found any other site on the internet that helps those in need as much as this one does. Keep up the wonderful work people. :-D

(By the way, a quarry[^] is a hole in the ground... ) LOL! :laugh: Thanx, well I was lost there for a while in the dark. ;P

Hey Dean, I got it to work! :-) Sorry but the Newbie is excited!!! lol I figured it out. I was reading the text wrong. I was reading the whole thing in one shot instead of reading it line by line and the 4th line I had to read it in two shots. This is the reading code I did and it all works just fine now. For anyone (Newbies) that need to know how to do this here's the extra code to finish it up. Change everything between the "Dim url As String" and the beginning of the listview code to this below. 'Read the url file and get the url text Dim c(3) As Char Dim url As String url = sr.ReadLine() url = sr.ReadLine() url = sr.ReadLine() url = sr.Read(c, 0, c.Length) url = sr.ReadLine() Thanks again for all of your help Dean. :-)

No worries - I just got in and online, but I'm glad you found a solution :-) Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++

HI Dave, Yeah I want to open the url link in my browser on my form. The Code you wrote is what I was thinking of putting. Glad to see I'm thinking in the right direction. :-) One thing though that I noticed as I was testing the first code you helped me on was that the names of some pages have these "<, >, *, |, :, \, /, &, %, ", ., #, ?" type characters and therefore the expected error comes up that the page name is not valid for saving. Now if you remember I'm taking the Variable URLName = WebBrowser.LocationURL string and using that as the SaveFileDialog.FileName. Could you dirrect me in the right track in order to check if the URLName variable has any of those characters and change them to a usable character like maybe the "-" or "_" characters before it is used in the SAveFileDialog box as the FileName? -- modified at 23:39 Friday 10th February, 2006

Hi Jason, After looking around I was able to find exactly what I was looking for. This is what I've got now that works really well. 'Make the Url_Address bar display the url your at. Private Sub AxWebBrowser_NavigateComplete2(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As AxSHDocVw.DWebBrowserEvents2_NavigateComplete2Event) Handles AxWebBrowser.NavigateComplete2 URL_Address.Text = AxWebBrowser.LocationURL End Sub Thanks for your help. :)
