Chrome to VB.Net

[John Caza]

Hello friends,

I'm not finding a lot of information on what I'm trying to achieve
here but maybe someone can help me.

I have a project in VB.Net that I use with IE for screenscraping
purposes and I want to be able to use Google Chrome as well.

What the software does in VB.Net is it searches for all the open IE
Windows and Tabs until it finds the ones with the URLs that I'm
looking to gather the HTML source from. This is easily achievable in
IE through the ShDocVw.Interop.

However to be able to do this in Chrome I found that it is a more
extensive process where you would possibly need to create a plugin /
extension for Chrome that would output the URL/HTML source... I'm
really unsure on how to approach this.

One approach I gather would be creating an ActiveX control for Chrome?
Having that loaded and then I can possibly see a way of transporting
the information between Chrome and the VB.Net project...

I'm really stuck on this, would really appreciate some help and I have
opened a project on vWorker.com for actual compensation

ActiveX is only supported in Internet Explorer/MSHTML based applications.

You will have to create an extension.

It has .NET bindings, described in C# style but I guess it should work with the inferior language too;
