How can I start a webpage in a seperate browser such as IE from my VB app?:confused:
Ask in VB questions next time... But search around for the ShellExecute API call. It will launch the item in question (ex. "http://www.vbforums.com/") with the assigned program (in this case, default browser).
Sorry to be so vague. I through this out there to see if I could get some other insiteful options. I've tried the ShellExecute API and it keeps bringing up Windows Explorer and opens it to the current app folder. Maybe I'm just not using it correctly?
How are you using it? You need to pass to it the web address of the website you want to open. If you just give it a filename, it's going to open it from the app's directory.
