Controlling Internet Explorer via VBA

I'm successfully opening a web page (that contains a flash app) with VBA through IE.

Flash application loads some images when user clicks on a button or after some pre-defined time.

My goal is to learn the name of the image loaded to the flash app.

Is it possible to do that ? If so how ?

Do you mean you are using vbscript?
Do you want to find out the name of the file being loaded in swf?

I'm using VBA from Access.

And yes, I want to find the name of the image file being loaded in swf.
I can do that with fiddler (a web debugger tool) but as it don't have vba reference or activex (as far as I know it don't) I cannot use it in my code.

Can I do that in any other way ?

My last shot will be reading fiddler output with screenocr sdk activex :)

As nobody else answered, your answer seems correct.
(Tough you commented "(I would not say its the definite answer)")
But as far as I understand form experts - exchange system, at last you rate the solutions to make other people find solutions more easier. (Based on the points)
So my grade is not just for your answer but also (in fact more for the) the topic itself.
I mean no offense and I am grateful for your answer.
Sorry if this hurts your rep in any way.
