Using WebBrowser to View/Copy/File PDF (VB6)
select a pdf for viewing via common dialog
use shell copy to make a copy of the pdf in another folder
open the the pdf (via navigate (...path...)
....user wants to file this copy
navigate ("about:blank")
...hide the control
name copy as new copy
several times the operation will complete without error, but, then
the readystate of the control never changes from 3 (interactive) to 4 (complete)
therefore, the name command fails with error 75 path/access error
clear the error and retry the name copy as new copy works on XP --- not on vista
Question: how can I get the readystate to change to Complete?

name (path2copy) as (path2newcopy) still fails
resume on err.number = 75 will case the name command to work
so, I guess the readystate was from the navigate ("about:blank")
