>I've got an app that uses the Web Browser Control to display some XML and text on a form. When I give it the Navigate2(filename) on my development machine (W2K/P3/450/128), it works just fine. On my test machine (W2K/P2/400/128) I had to throw in a delay (FOR N = 1000000/NEXT n) after issuing the Navigate2 command or it would never display the loaded document. I checked the DownloadComplete Event and it was firing (without the delay) but nothing was being displayed. I got the clue for the delay since the crazy thing would work every time in the debug mode if I had a breakpoint prior to the Navigate2 and then single stepped through the loading.

At least call Sleep() rather than burn cycles in a loop:

 DECLARE INTEGER Sleep IN WIN32API INTEGER
=Sleep(2000) && time in ms

>The IE5 versions are slightly different (5.00.3103.100 on the development machine and 5.50.4134 on the test machine) and a corresponding difference in versions of the SHDOCVW dll.
