I've referenced the dart objects in VBA's reference area. I'm looking at using the get http command froma procedure in Access. The 424 error is preventing me from doing it. I also want to pass a username and password as well. Does anyone have an example of this? The documentation doesn't provide an example that uses the user and pass values. Thanks - David

Hi David,
What does the line of code look like that causes the error?
To use username and password, just use the last two parameters of the Get method:
Http1.Get Content, , UserName, Password
-ken

I get a 424 error with this code, taken right from the help file...

Private Sub Command0_Click()

On Error GoTo OnError ' use intrinsic error handling
' Get a web page from a web server
Dim Orderform As String
http1.Timeout = 20000 'give it 20 seconds to complete
http1.Url = "http://www.dart.com/"
http1.Get Orderform
MsgBox (Orderform) 'The HTML code for the web site appears in the msgbox box
Exit Sub
OnError: ' Any error jumps here
Debug.Print "Error #" + CStr(Err.Number) + ": " + Err.Description
MsgBox (Err.Number)


I have a form with 2 controls on it. One is the http control from you guys and the other is a command button that I click to launch this.

Thanks

David

PS: is it possible to call this control and use it w/o including the control on a form. eg) in the midst of a vba module w/o reference to any form?

The error occurs on the first line of code being executed. I don't have a proxy on my side that requires a username and password. The website I'm retrieving from requires a username and password. Can I still use the UserName and Password options? How do I set their values?

Thanks,
David

Hi David,
I just tried your code and it worked ok for me.
Are you sure the control is named http1 on your form?
This is what the Username and Password parameters of the Get method are for (not Proxy Authorization).
