Property Value
A Stream containing the contents of the current Web page, or a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) if no page is loaded. The default is a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).| Exception type | Condition |

Use this property to load a Web page into the WebBrowser control from a Stream object. You can use this property, for example, to load Web pages from a database or resource file. When you set this property, the WebBrowser control automatically navigates to the about:blank URL before loading the specified text. This means that the Navigating, Navigated, and DocumentCompleted events occur when you set this property, and the value of the Url property is no longer meaningful.
To access the contents of a Web page as a string, use the DocumentText property. You can also access the page contents using the HTML document object model (DOM) through the Document property.
- SecurityPermission for immediate callers to use this control. Demand value: LinkDemand; Named Permission Sets: FullTrust.
