[QUOTE="nomaam, post: 730, member: 407"] Is it possible to limit the number of open Internet Explorer windows? My VB.NET program will be using IE, and I would like to ensure that only one IE window can be open. This will be done to prevent pop-up windows from interfering with its work. I know there are free pop-up blocking programs that I can use, but I would like to have this function built into my program. Any help would be appreciated. I have found this code to ensure that only one instance of the VB.NET program is open; could this be modified to control the amount of IE windows? This is the code: [code] Private Sub Form_Load() ' See if there is already and instance. If App.PrevInstance Then ' Activate the previous instance AppActivate App.Title ' Send a key (here SHIFT-key) to set the ' form from the previous instance to the ' top of the screen. SendKeys "+", True ' Terminate the new instance Unload Me End If End Sub [/code] I am fairly new to VB.NET. [/QUOTE]
