I think it is best to start a new thread, since I am interruptimg other discussions with my questions. I try to load information from the internet in my program. Hans Galema told me that I need TCPPWebBrowser and that I had to ask the question in borland.public.cppbuilder.internet.web. I didn't know that group yet, but here I am! Well, I read many messages in this group, and I hardly found a single one that did not discuss TCPPWebBrowser! Remy Gambit told me that TCPPWebBrowser ships with BCB. So where to obtain BCB? Can it be downloaded somewhere? The only BCB I can find is in the file BCB.dro, but this does not appear to be very helpful. -- Jos�

This is a riddle to me. Remy says that BCB must be obtained somewhere, so it is not on any tab. But he did not tell me where and how to obtain it. I tried Borland's website, but there is no BCB in its search function. -- Jos�

TCppWebBrowser is pre-installed for you if you chose to install the Internet package when you installed C++Builder. Gambit

BCB = Borland C++Builder, which you presumably are >already using! Wow, who was joking? Of course I know Borland C++Builder, I had a lot of fun with it, but I never knew it as BCB! Since you said "BCB" I searched my hard disk for "BCB" and I found virtually nothing. So this problem is solved now. >TCppWebBrowser is pre-installed for you if you chose >to install the Internet package when you installed C++Builder. Well, I grabbed the CD. Surprise: there is a file named BCB.ICO on it. Any more interesting things on the CD? Well, IEJAVA.CAB contains some interesting filenames, such as WebBrowser.class. Now for the installation. I start the installation program on the CD. It complains that C++Builder (as it calls itself) is already installed. Let's select Custom installation. Everything has been selected. But I cannot find an Internet package. Sorry, I haven't made much progress yet. -- Jos�

Do you think the package is not included in this obsolete version? In that case I wonder: do I need to upgrade or to download? The search function Borland's website does not respond to CppWebBrowser. (It doesnt respond to BSB either) -- Jos�

In > that case I wonder: do I need to upgrade or to download? Version 3 already had an Internet tab on it's component palette. So version 4 will have that too. Now version 3 did not have TCppWebBrowser. But I assume that version 4 has it on the Internet tab. But maybe that is only for the professionel edition. You did not tell which you have. But why spend time on this old version where there is a very modern Turbo C++ Explorer for free? You also posted in the graphics group about svg files. You did not however react on the question in my reply. I wonder why. Hans.

You did not tell which you have. The tabs are: Standard, Additional, Win32, System, Dialogs The version is Borland C++Builder Standard Version 4.0 (Build 14.4) >But why spend time on this old version where there is a very modern >Turbo C++ Explorer for free? That's a reply to my question "upgrade or download". I presume it is on Borland's website. I am very busy now, but I'll check it out. >You also posted in the graphics group about svg files.

But you can import Microsoft's ActiveX library manually instead and create a new wrapper component. Or just use the ActiveX control directly without any wrappers. Gambit

Well, I'm trying now to download Turbo C++ Explorer, which is not as easy as it seems. I just started the download for the fourth time. -- Jos�
