How does one gain access to the WebBrowser (SHDocVw) control to the extent
of the one used in VS.NET Start Page?

I'm familiar with using the control directly, I've written a tutorial on it,
and am familiar with HTML Applications (HTA), but how are features like the
right-click context sensitive menu and selection diabled in VS.NET's Start
Page?

If I attempt to make a WebBrowser control navigate to an HTA file, it brings
up a dialog asking whether to open or save the file, how do I get it to
directly open imediately in the browser?

Is there any word on when/if a .NET WebBrowser host will be released?

The much talked about
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/productinfo/roadmap.aspx contains the
sentences:
"Second, Windows Forms will include features and controls that increase
developer productivity. These include: an Active Document Container for
hosting Office documents, a Microsoft Office-style toolbar, intuitive
splitter controls, a sound component that can run in partial trust, a Web
browser control that can be accessed safely by way of managed code, and
layout controls that automatically position and resize controls on a form as
screen resolution or form dimensions change."

If it turns into reality Whidbey will quickly become my best friend...

Noah,

If you want to control things like the context menu of the webbrowser you'll
have write a class to implement the IDocHostUIHandler. Once that is done you
can then cast webbrowsers Document property to ICustomDoc and call the
SetUIHandler method. The IDocHostUIHandler interface has a method called
ShowContextMenu and you can disable the showing of the menu in your
implementation of this method
