Does the CreateObject method follow any specific syntax?

For instance, at first I thought that what went in the parentheses was the library and class separated by a period (Ex: "Scripting.Dictionary", "Scripting.FileSystemObject". However, when you use it for internet explorer it is "InternetExplorer.Application" instead of "SHDocVw.InternetExplorer". Is the syntax not standard and something you just need to look up every time? I will use early binding anyways but I'm just curious.

After you've created an instance, you can insert a line:

Please Login or Register  to view this content.

to see if it displays anything different from the way you called it.

But I think you can call CreateObject with just a plain "InternetExplorer" if that removes unwanted choices.
