 in-place activate ie inside vb.net application window

I am looking to have some kind of xml/html viewer inside my vb.net
application.  Is such a control available?  Something to in place activate
ie 6 for example.  I have done some looking around and of course there is
the webbrowser control which emulates an ie3 browser, but I am looking for
something a little more capable that will integrate well with .net.

Does such a control exist?  It can be a third party implementation.  It can
be an xsl capable viewer (does not necessaraly have to be html).

My application:
I am writing a survey application that has the survey (lots of quesitions
with radio buttons to submit answers) in a scrollabe viewer (mentioned
above).  I need to be able to capture click events from the hosting
application.  The app will also have a treeview control so that I can
'index' into survey at any specific point.

The old msdn library viewer might be an example of what I am trying to do
but I need to be able to trap click events anywhere on form.

Thanks

The WebBrowser control is ready for this purpose. You can add the
control to you .net application via COM Interop.

Thanks, I must be blind, it was on my xp sp1 box and it appears to have all
the capabilites (including javascript) of  a modern browser.  I was
concerned because most of the usenets posts were in relation to emulating
IE3 and that would not due.

Found this great example of it in action on your site.  Sample application
is called Silk Screen or slkscrn.

Thanks again.
