[RESOLVED] Linklabel

Iv done a forum search but can't figure out how to get it to work.

How can I make it so when you click the linklabel it will open up the users default browser to google.com for example.


Also I can't seem to find where to build the exe? How can I do this...

You can build the exe by clicking "Build > Solution" and the exe will be located in your projects bin folder.

VB Code:

Private Sub LinkLabel1_LinkClicked(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.LinkLabelLinkClickedEventArgs) Handles LinkLabel1.LinkClicked
    Dim oProcess As Process
    oProcess.Start("http://www.google.com")
End Sub

Thank you.

Is process more like shellexecute or shell?

Its more like Process, :p Jk. Its more like ShellExecute I'd say.

The Process class encapsulates a Windows process, so it is much more than just the Start method. You can call Process.Start to run a specific program, open a specific file with a specific program, and open a specific file with its default program, along with various other properties of the resultiant process. The ProcessStartInfo class, which can be used in conjunction with Process.Start, has a UseShellExecute property, which may have some similarity to a VB6 function named ShellExecute if there was one.
