Alrighty folks, got another error on the following code. The code executes all the way down to the iframe coding.

I'm trying to fill out a webform that's nested in an IE frame and it's throwing a run time error when it gets to the With statement. Still learning so any assistance is much appreciated.

Here's what I have so far.

Code:
Option Explicit

Sub fillForm()


'Establish IE
Dim IE As InternetExplorer
Set IE = New InternetExplorerMedium


'because of security settings, you must reset IE settings


'Change Settings


Dim activeLink As String


activeLink = "link"


'Open IE and Naviage to SAP form
With IE


    .navigate activeLink
    .Visible = True


   'Loop to wait until page loads
   
Do While .Busy Or .readyState <> READYSTATE_COMPLETE
DoEvents
Loop


End With


'Find IE Form


Dim iframeDoc As MSHTML.HTMLDocument
Set iframeDoc = IE.document


'Fill out Form


Dim cT As String


cT = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("data").Range("P2").Value




With iframeDoc


    iframeDoc.getElementById("contentAreaFrame").contentWindow.iframeDoc.getElementById("isolatedWorkArea").contentWindow.getElementById("__xmlview1--idInputCT-inner").Value = cT


'Submit Form
    iframeDoc.getElementsById("__xmlview1--idFilterbar-btnGo").Value.Click


End With




'Call macro to pull results








End Sub

Gah, is there another workaround? This accesses an intranet so InternetExplorerMedium is necessary.
