Sorry about that...I've been away on business for a couple of weeks and almost forgot about the question.<br />
I've decided to continue developing this in VB6 due to reasons other than this. <br />
<br />
Thanks anyway for your help <br />

Hi All<br />
<br />
I've written a small program using vb6 which involves retrieving the web address from the current active window of IE. This uses DDE to communicate with IE. ( .LinkTopic = &quot;IExplore|WWW_GetWindowInf<wbr />o&quot;)<br />
<br />
I'm trying to convert this application to .net in order to expand on it. The problem is that DDE is not supported in .net 2005<br />
<br />
I need to be able to retrieve the web address from the current active instance of IE using OLE Automation(which has apparently replaced DDE) and insert it into a textbox.<br />
<br />
Any help will be greatly appreciated...thanks<br />

Retrieve web address from IE using VB.Net 2005

Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is an object-oriented programming language implemented on the .NET framework, but also supported on other platforms such as Mono and Silverlight. Microsoft launched VB.NET as the successor to the Visual Basic language. Though it is similar in syntax to  Visual Basic pre-2002, it is not the same technology,
