I'm using your WebTool to do nothing more than download a file. I use the http1.get and immediately get a "type mismatch" error 13. This is the same error I was getting use MSINET.OCX. I tried switching to your tool to correct the problem. This only happens on Windows 98...NT and 2000 seem fine. Any suggestions?

Sincerely,

Hi Mark,
Please give me three or four lines of code to duplicate the problem.
Thanks,

Ken,

It's not so much a coding problem as a mixed-up DLL type problem. The code works fine on NT/2000 PCs but not on 98. Our application uses VBDs and internet download to install files. All of a sudden the "type mismatch" error started happening with MSINET.OCX. As I said before, I then tried your control and get the same problem. The code was as simple as...

dim buffer() as byte
http1.url="http://20.20.20.30/vbd/disiservers.ini"
http1.get buffer
' The error occured on the Get call

Sincerely,
Mark Witten

Hi Mark,
You're correct, the code is fine.
Both our control and msinet.ocx use wininet.dll. Is this dlls registered on the machine?
If all else fails, have you tried re-installing Internet Explorer?
