title: Trying to Automate Chrome with Selenium VBA, automation error?
body: <p>I am trying to data scrape from a website that is only compatible with Google Chrome. I want to scrape the info into an Excel file so I would like to use VBA to accomplish this.</p>
  
  <p>This is my code. </p>
  
  <pre><code>Sub OpenGoogleChrome()
  
  Dim driver As New WebDriver
  driver.Start "chrome", "http://www.google.com"
  driver.Get "/"
  
  End Sub
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I've tried several variations of this code but I get the same error:</p>

  <p>I am just simply trying to open chrome through this automation process so I can utilize it to data scrape later. </p>
  
  <p>I am using Chrome v69, the most recent version of Selenium Basic (2.0.9.0) and I've replaced the Selenium Basic ChromeDriver with the latest version (2.42).</p>
  
  <p>These are my VBA references for my code:</p>

  <p>Any help would be much appreciated.</p>
  
  <p><strong>EDIT:</strong> I'm using Windows 10 and I do have the necessary .Net framework. </p>
