Loading an html file from hard drive

[Edward233]

Hi all
Im having a problem loading a html file to a webbrowser in a program im writing. What it does if I press a button or menu item a form is loaded
and a html help file is loaded to the WebBrowser1. here is the code

Public Class frmWeb

    Private Sub frmWeb_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        Dim path As String

        'Load help document
        path = Application.UserAppDataPath + "\winanvis3.01help.html"
        WebBrowser1.Navigate("file:///" + path)

    End Sub
End Class

The web page loads but all I get is

This program cannot display the webpage.

By the way Im new to visual studio 2005 the programe was originally writen in vb6.

That logic works for me so I can only conclude that the file you're specifying doesn't exist. Have you viewed the actual contents of 'path' and confirmed that the file does actually exist at that location?
