    Question Embed Google Chrome Object into Userform

    Hi guys,

    I'm developing a hybrid webpage/ excel application.

    The primary interface for this application is via excel.
    I am looking to take advantage of the many tools in existence in javascript/ html/ php etc etc..

    One method of 'linking' these two platforms is via the VBA userform object.

    I am aware of the Microsoft Web Browser object for embedding an instance of internet explorer? into a userform, allowing for a specified webpage to be loaded and viewed, through a userform.

    I am encountering issues with using the MS Web Browser object, specifically I am receiving an "out of memory at line X" message when trying using this object.

    The level of difficulty in identifying the cause of this memory leek is high enough to warrant try a new approach.

    I wish to know if it is indeed possible to embed a Google Chrome object into the userform, and if this approach can potentially remedy this error I am receieving


    Thank you gurus
    Kind regards
    Jordan

    Re: Embed Google Chrome Object into Userform

    did you get anywhere with this?? I'm trying to do the same but I cant see how to embed selenium in to a vba form. I can start another instance of chrome and control it from VBA but can see how to put a browser window on my form and view the web page in there as per the IE WebBrowser control.. I'm probably missing something here so would be grateful of any pointers on how to do it...thanks
