    Question Help!!!

    Ok, I have made a totally un-related program to this post, but i want to know how to send them to my website (www.darkflight.com) when they click on a button. How? I know I might have to shell to IE, but what if they don't have IE on their machine (eg a LINUX operating system)

    If you're writing it in VB then you could include the Internet Explorer control in your project and display the web page within your program.

    Otherwise, if you create a URL file and shell to it then it will open using the default program. That should work on all systems (unless they have nothing to view URL's with)

    Funny, I thought that you couldn't run VB in LINUX.

    I didn't either, but I have been told by someone at my school that it can, but you have to use a form of emulator to get it to run

    Ah, WINE (WINE is not an emulator)

    Actually it is an emulator, but that's what WINE stands for! Weird eh?
