Moderate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills.
SYMPTOMS
In Microsoft Access 97, when you insert the Web Browser Control on a form,
and you are using a computer that has Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0
installed, you may receive the following error message when you try to
display the control:
There is no object in this control.
If you click OK in the message box, you receive the following additional
message:
Run-time error '438'
Object doesn't support this property or method
This problem occurs if you are using the version of the Web Browser Control
that is included on the Microsoft Office 97 Professional Edition compact
disc in the ValuPack folder.
CAUSE
The file, Shdocvw.dll (version 4.701.300), is replaced with a newer version
that is installed with Internet Explorer 4.0. Microsoft Access 97 does not
recognize the newer version (4.71.1712.5) of the control.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Access 97.
This problem no longer occurs in Microsoft Access 2000.
