I have found this to work when the body object doesn't appear in the dom of IE9 and you are trying to get to innertext or innerhtml.
lctext=oie.Document.body IF ISNULL(lctext) lctext=OIE.Application.Document.firstChild ENDIF John Harvey -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Graham Brown Sent: Wednesday, June 15, 2011 2:33 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Automate Internet Explorer 9 with fox 8 Hi all I've got some simple code to automate IE, navigate to a URL and download the page as text. This code works fine in IE8 oIE=createobject("InternetExplorer.Application") oIE.Navigate("http://www.microsoft.com";) do while oIE.ReadyState<>4 Inkey(1) Enddo ? oIE.Document.Body.InnerText The compiled application fails with "Body is not an object" on Windows 7 and IE9. If I run this line by in the command window Intellisense tells me there is no body although I can just ignore Intellisense and ask for the body. I can then see its InnerText. Intellisense also fails in IE8/WinXP but the compiled application works fine. Has any come across this one please because it is driving me nuts.
