Running vb6 (sp 6 )

I want to run a vb procedure that will open an internet window as a stay on
top window and allow a user to browse web pages, etc, but when that internet
window is closed then carry on with the vb procedure and report that the
internet window has been closed

can anybody give an example of this ?

Have you already decided against using the Web Browser control? It would
take some work to get it to work "just like IE" but it's very easy to setup
and allow people to browse anywhere they want. You can even control exactly
where the user's allowed to browse (keep them locked into your web site for
example <g>)
