>I believe I am asking this question under the right catagory. Hi all. Using automation or an API call, I would like to extract the URL from the currently open browser (probably IE5) - I have spent an entirely frustrating and fruitless afternoon searching through the so-called help provided in the MSDN library and have come to terms with the fact that I do not even know where to look.

Normally, there is no way to get an object handle on an already running instance of IE.

What you want is fairly simple though, if you launch that instance from your code. You'll just need to iterate through the Links collection, and grab the HREF property of your choice.
