Im trying to make a basic web browser with VB6, here is what i have:

Private Sub cmdback_Click()
On Error Resume Next
WebBrowser1.GoBack
End Sub

Private Sub cmdForward_Click()
On Error Resume Next
WebBrowser1.GoForward
End Sub

Private Sub cmdgo_Click()
WebBrowser1.Navigate (txturl.Text)
End Sub



Private Sub cmdRefresh_Click()
On Error Resume Next
WebBrowser1.Refresh
End Sub

Private Sub cmdStop_Click()
On Error Resume Next
WebBrowser1.Stop
End Sub

Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
Form1.Caption = WebBrowser1.LocationName
End Sub

When i try to open the compiled .exe the error:
Run-time Error '424'
Object required.
Pops up, any ideas?

have you tried running it in the VB IDE? If not, you might try that, and tell us which line gets highlighted....

Private Sub cmdgo_Click()
WebBrowser1.Navigate (txturl.Text)
End Sub

WebBrowser1.Navigate (txturl.Text)
___________
