Can anyone tell me the correct mshtml interface so that I can read/set the 
values and names of comboboxes and drop down lists displayed in a browser. 
I've tried Gambit's...

  TComInterface<IHTMLDocument2> Doc;
        ActiveBrowser->Document->QueryInterface(IID_IHTMLDocument2, 
(LPVOID*)&Doc);
        if( Doc )
        {
            TComInterface<IHTMLElementCollection> All;
            Doc->get_all(&All);
            if( All )
            {
                long count = 0;
                All->get_length(&count);

                for(long idx = 0; idx < count; ++idx)
                {
                    TVariant item = idx;
                    TVariant index = 0;
                    TComInterface<IDispatch> Disp;

                    All->item(item, index, &Disp);
                    if( Disp )
                     { TComInterface<IHTMLInputElement> Input;
                        Disp->QueryInterface(IID_IHTMLInputElement,(LPVOID*) 
&Input);

                        // AND Also tried
                        //TComInterface<IHTMLInputTextElement> Input;
                        //Disp->QueryInterface(IID_IHTMLInputTextElement,(LPVOID*) 
&Input);



                        if( Input )
                        {  ...



... but it just skips over my combo boxes displayed in the browser.  I need 
to be able to see the combo box's name and set/read the selected value of 
the box.

Thanks for looking.
