Web browser active X does not show site
I am developing on ms/access 2016. Its a quick applications where, on a table, I do have some Latitude and Longitude coordinates and I just want to open Bing Maps, inside a web browser frame, and show the location. I am trying to use bing maps as, for the country (Guinea-Bissau), the satellite images are much better.
So I have a string, containing the "command line", which is: http://bing.com/maps/default.aspx?cp=11.9186111111111~15.9505555555556&lvl=19&style=h"&dir=90 and works perfectly on a browser, but nothing shows on the control
can anyone help?

Ok the best Key is:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE \Microsoft \Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureContr ol\FEATURE _BROWSER_E MULATION
as this doens't require admin rights, but you can set it on the local machine key as well.
Under that Key, enter a DWORD key of MSACCESS.EXE and set the value to 0x00002711 (10001)
I also have in my notes that I set FEATURE_GUI_RENDERING to a value of 1, but I'm not sure that's actually required (believe I tired that for some performance improvements).

and I ended up leaving that GPU rendering off by the way, so the one setting is all you need.

Hi Jim -
Please check the attached. I am sending in the screenshots and the database so you may doublecheck. Behaviour is the same (and I have rebooted the machine to make sure that I am starting in a clean environment.
I did not put yet a first background page, and the idea is, when I press a button it will look into the village. when I change village it just puts a background
:(

it's the compatibility mode setting on the web browser control. It emulates something like IE 7 by default, which won't display bing maps.
Note that bing showing up as a white page can happen on a normal station to. Give me like 5 minutes to dig out the setting (it's a registry entry).
