How to grab ALL html source from an instance of internetexplorer object with VB6?

I want to get ALL of the html from an open webpage on my computer using vB6. The webpage has multiple frames. I don't know html and I am not sure what frames are so please take that into account with your answer. I simply want the html in a text file in any text format so i can search through it for data. The 'IE show source' has all the info i need, but how to get that with a vb6 program? Most web searches I have done come up with how to get the html by downloading using an url and that wont work for me. I need the html from an open instance of IE. Preferably using the internetexplorer object with VB6. Thanks.

Save the HTML's source code.
Add it to the environment variables and open VB6:

  1. Open a new project/file
  2. Include your saved html
  3. Drag an drop the boxes

Have you tried the Winsock control? I think that is what your looking for.
