Hi acty,
your question is to general. It depends on the application how you know that the application has loaded a document. An application have started completely when it is listed in the task list of Windows. The other thing you are asking for to know when an application has completly opend a document. This second question can only answer the application.
For your example of the IE there is a method in the Active-X interface. You can find the method if you load <vi.lib>\Utility\NIReport.llb\Print HTML using IE.vi. This VI will print a HTML file on the standard printer using IE. The VI needs to wait until the HTML file has loaded and then start the print. For this case you can look here.
For other applications you need the description of the Active-X interface if this is possible or not. And there are a lot of programs out there which even don't have any Active-X interface. For these applications you don't have a chance to find out, when a document have been loaded.

Hi acty,
<vi.lib>\Utility\NIReport.llb\Print HTML using IE.vi is an example for IE. The NIReport is part of your LabVIEW installation.
