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.

It's on the Internet tab of your controls.

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.

Are you joking? BCB = Borland C++Builder, which you presumably are
already using! TCppWebBrowser is pre-installed for you if you chose
to install the Internet package when you installed C++Builder.

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.

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.

Which edition of C++Builder are you using?

Version 4. Internet already existed when I bought it.

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)

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.

The tabs are: Standard, Additional, Win32, System, Dialogs

The version is Borland C++Builder Standard Version 4.0 (Build 14.4)

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.

That is not what I meant. That is the version number. I was asking
for the edition - Professional, Enterprise, etc.

You can't download it. 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.

Then no, you do not have TCppWebBrowser available. It is not shipped
with the Standard edition.

I'm afraid this wil be beyond the capabilities of a simple Fortran
educated programmer like me.

Microsoft has ample documentation at MSDN for how to use the
WebBrowsre control in applications.

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.
