Hi Greg,
I don't understand. I looked at the page you refered me to. That just reads the URL, it doesn't load in the background, specifically I can't run the _webbrowser4.Refresh2() method on the file that's read (unless I don't understand it). I don't think I can get away from having to see the web page any way.
