Thanks, Victor. I did know about the Web Browser control, but have been reserving it as a last resort. I was hoping not to have to distribute an ActiveX control with my client app, but now it's looking like that's the route I will go. Have every heard of any native .NET browser controls? ( I've been searching unsuccessfully for one.)
