Hello everybody!
I'm new in this forum and i would like to know if somebody could help me.
I'm writing a Macro in VBA to interact with Internet explorer to open multiple sessions in internet explorer and log in into a site.
The problem is that when i use the createobject function i will be able to interact with every page opened but they are opened in the same session. Basically it opens 2 different windows not sessions in IE.

CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")

To try to solve the problem i tried to use the shell function to open IE in multiple sessions and i can.

Shell "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe", -noframemerging

The problem here is that i don't know how to interact with IE. In which way can get that IE new session as object?

I think that is really strange there is no option in the creation object function to open a news session.

Anybody can help?

Thanks

To shade all formula cells: Home, Find & Select, Formulas to select all formulas. Then apply a light fill color.
If you mean that you'd like to navigate to a URL in a separate tab within the same window, you'll need to include a flag when using the Navigate method. So, let's say that you've created an instance of Internet Explorer and assigned it to an object variable called IE, and that you've navigated to a URL. Now let's say you want to navigate to a second URL in a new tab within the same window, you would do it this way...

Code:
IE.navigate URL:="www.google.com", Flags:=CLng(2048)

Notice that the Flags argument must be passed as Long. You can find a list of available BrowserNavConstants in the following link...

Hope this helps!
