webbrowser object and proxy

[bensonsearch]

Hi All,

im making a web browser using the webbrowser object, all going awesome. only thing is I can not find a way to code in a proxy to use (i know the settings are taken from IE but surely there is a way to change that by code) all examples i have found on the web are for vb.net which do not apply. any help is welcome

As far as I'm aware you'd need to change the appropriate registry key. Someone asked a very similar question fairly recently - see http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/showthread.php?t=550350.

The only difference is that you want to write the key rather than just read it, so you'd do something like this:-

[FONT=Courier New]SetKeyValue "Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings", _[/FONT]
[FONT=Courier New]    HKEY_CURRENT_USER, "ProxyServer", "192.168.0.1:8080", REG_SZ[/FONT]
