I ended up uninstalling Silverlight and Flash and that worked. &nbsp;I have seen your solution in other parts of the Internet and assume it will work. &nbsp;I just didn't know how to get there, and your F12 really helped.

hrolsons--I do not understand what the problem is now. &nbsp;Something new or the original &quot;File browsing dialog has been blocked&quot;?<br />
Please provide more detail. &nbsp;For example what is &quot;a webbrowser control&quot;. &nbsp;I do not believe the original MS Webbrowser Control works with IE9 and up.<br />

In any event I think you should open a new thread. &nbsp;Not too many people are going to be reading this when they see that you closed it.

I suspect this is more of an IE thing than VB, but I'm desperate.

File browsing dialog has been blocked

Web browsers are applications used primarily to display documents, files and media from the Internet, identified by a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that can be a page, image, video or other file. Some browsers require the use of add-ons or extensions to safely render the information they receive; others have systems built into them to perform the same functions.

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
