Refresh Edge Browser Control

Roger Morton

3 years ago

I have a list of all my database reports (based on one of your videos). I was using a BMP file to show a preview of what the report looks like to help the user pick the correct report. It works well but it required me to screengrab an image everytime I created a new report or modified one. I am trying to use the Edge Browser Control to display a preview of the exported PDF file. It works well but I simply cannot find a way to refresh/requury the browser when I click on another report (displayed in a list box). If I use the ribbon 'Refresh All' option is works, but there must be a way of using VBA to uodate the control when the user click on the another items in a list box on the same form. Any suggestions?

What have you tried? Does Me.Requery not work? What about EdgeBrowserControl.Requery (replace EdgeBrowserControl with the name of your control)?

Hi Kevin, Many thanks for your response. I have tried usinf Me.Requery & EdgeBrowserControl.Requery (& refresh) using both the Me. format and the full format. I cant be certain that I did not make a mistake but I did try several times. I have now resorted to using the more conventional WebBrowserControl (rather than the EdgeBrowserControl) and have it working but again the Requery command does not seem to work but using the command 'Me.wbcPDFPreview.Object.Navigate "Address"' seems to give me what I wanted. (I got the Navigate clue from another of Richards videos/vault).

I am still frustrated that the 'Refresh All' command from the ribbon works but nothing else seem ed. Why doesnt Microsoft provide a VBA command that does EXACTLY the same things as the Refresh All button?

Thanks for response - for now I am happy with what I have but if you have a further comment on refreshing webbrowser controls I would be interested.
