Web Browser control

Hello NG,
I have question about the web browser control.
From the control tool box I added a Microsoft Web Browser control to my
presentation and it kind of works.
I say kind of works because it worked on the machine I was creating the
presentation,but won't work on the machine I'm supposed to run the
presentation on.
The other frustration thing is that I can't get the address bar or status
bar to show up event though the intelisence indicates that these are
available to me.

I added the control to the last slide and a button the activate it.
I'm trying to get a web browser window to open in my presentation using this
code.
Any help ---Please---
Thanks
James

'Begin Code===================
Private Sub btnWeb_Click()
Dim strAddress As String
strAddress = "http://www.yahoo.com"
strStatusText = "This is status bar text"
web1.Visible = True
web1.AddressBar = True
web1.StatusBar = True
web1.ToolBar = True
web1.Resizable = True

web1.Navigate (strAddress)

End Sub
'End Code===================

PTMagician,
Thanks for the tip, however I have was using this PowerPoint presentation to
send to employees of a small recruiting firm demonstration how to use
Ad-aware and Spybot S&D, both of which are pretty simple to use, but if
you're not a computer user then this can seem a daunting task.
Trying to get them to install a package from the internet would be
frustrating and time consuming, and take away from the benefits of the
presentation.
As an MVP do you have any contact with Microsoft?, maybe they could write a
help file for this product. Both the help that comes with PP and the MSDN
site have NOTHING on this subject, or at least I can't find any thing (maybe
someone else can)
