VW7.9 How to control Internet Explorer?

Hi:

I would like VisualWorks 7.9 to open IE on a link, open another link in another tab and then minimize.
The user can then use VW and IE independently.
I want VW to close a particular tab in IE.
Later when VW exits, I want IE to close too.

Thanks in advance,
Aik-Siong Koh

"If you are looking for me: I am somewhere near to lunacy. 
More clearly, on the narrow path between lunacy and panic. 
Right around the corner of  fear of death, 
not far away from idiocy and insanity."

In VW7.9.1 64bit on Win7 with all of COMConnect loaded. I was able to get the following to work. But IE started minimized. How do I get it to start on top?

Thanks.
Aik-Siong Koh

ie := (COMDispatchDriver createObject: 'InternetExplorer.Application').
ie setVisible: true.
ie Navigate2: 'http://askoh.com'.

Do something. Then do below.

ie Quit.
ie release.
