VB.NET 2008 - WinForms
Hi Everyone!
I've been looking for an answer to my problem but I only find more questions related to my problem...
The thing is that I'm using a AxWebBrowser control in VB.NET 2008 to open a excel file in a WindowsForm, it opens succesfully and everything... but the problem is this:
If I had a Excel File Open before opening another Excel File in my WebBrowser Control, the window that contains the file that was already open gets locked... (I can't give focus to that Excel window... If I click on it, the focus returns to my application)
I tried creating a new excel instance with CreateObject("Excel.Application")
just before loading the file, but the WebBrowser locks the first Excel Instance...
Is there a way to lock it to the last instance???
I use the WebBrowser1.Navigate(Url)
method to load the file... where Url
is a String like C:\myExcelFile.xlsm
WebBrowser1.Document.Application.UserControl
is also True
, but it get's locked.
Any Suggestion??
Thanks in Advance!!!
