some vb code snippets

Hello,

I am looking a code in VB6 that does:

1) Runs Internet Explorer or any other default browser

2) Runs Outlook Express or any other default email client

3) Cut Function

4) Copy Function

5) Paste Function

These are all for buttons in my ToolBar! I am a complete newbie (only started using vb last week), so please explain stuff in dummy terms!

Thanks

1) read something about shellexecute api

2) same as 1

3,4,5) depends where u want to use it
for cut, copy u would need :

VB Code:

Clipboard.SetText "some text"

Use the Search button and you'll find lots of examples.

and try www.planet-source-code.com for thousands of various programming examples

You also need to look into another thing.

When you try and run Internet Explorer with VB, you need to know the exact Path and filename. Not all people have the same version of windows, or internet explorer. Which means you have to find how to search for such a filename on the computer.

A few are IE.EXE, IEXPLORE.EXE, Internet Explorer.EXE


You get the picture...
