What's the difference between Internet Explorer and Explorer?

From the navigate bar of either, you can type a web URL like www.msn.com or a local file path like “c:\Windows”

 

In this post I showed how VFP can use the web browser control easily.

 

Try opening a few instances of IE and a couple of Windows Explorer, then run this code. All the windows of both types are in the same collection.

 

 

LOCAL oShell as Shell32.Shell

oShell=CREATEOBJECT("shell.application")

FOR EACH oWindow as SHDocVw.WebBrowser IN oShell.Windows

?oWindow.LocationName,oWindow.LocationURL

ENDFOR

Does SHDocVw stand for Shell Document View, which is a unified approach to both IE and Explorer windows?
