webbrowser and object doesn't support this property ....

[rturner003]

I have tried several routines, on different browsers and different machines but when I try using the webbrowser control all I get is a script error of 'object doesn't support this propert or method'.

For example this is a piece of code from a MSDN page:

[HEAD]
[OBJECT ID="wbp"
CLASSID="CLSID:778C58A9-81B6-11D3-BB8F-00C04FA3471C"]
[/OBJECT]
[SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript"]
   Sub Print()
       If Len(wbp.DefaultPrinterName) = 0 Then
           MsgBox "No default printer!"
           Exit Sub
       End If
       wbp.Header = "My Header"
       wbp.Orientation = 2 ' Landscape
       wbp.Print
   End Sub
[/SCRIPT]
[/HEAD]
[BODY]
[INPUT TYPE="BUTTON" VALUE="Print" ONCLICK="Print()"]
[/BODY]

this comes up with 'object doesn't support this propert or method 'wbp.DefaultPrinterName''

Has anybody any ideas, it is driving me crazy and it is probably something silly!

It may be because not all the machines have the activex control installed, you should use a codebase="" on the object, then if it's not installed the browser will download the control so it can be used in the page. Regards
