Hello, all!
I am writing a VBA procedure in Word 2007. At one point, I extract a URL from the document's text.
If possible, I would like to do the following:
Open Internet Explorer.
Navigate to this URL.
Do a "Find" on the page for a specific string of text (results: '0').
Return a value of True or False, or some functional equivalent to indicate whether or not the string was found on the web page.
Can anyone advise me on how to open IE and perform the "Find", via my procedure in Word?
If details help: I am running Word 2007 (Office 12); Windows XP; and Internet Explorer 7 for Windows XP.
Thank you SO much in advance for any help!! :content:
