    Exclamation Please help : Open .exe from VB6 web browser

    Hi,

    I have a GML file in my framework, where when I right click open the file it will launch the YED.exe application.

    I already have a webbrowser in my framework to open all excel,html,other files etc.

    I want to know how can I open the YED application inside my VB6 framewindow. Can I do it using webbrowser or is there any better options.?


    I dont want to launch in a separate window.Please help me..

    Thanks in Advance,
    Karthick.M

    I think, you can't show or load another application inside your VB6 application (like displaying HTML, Text files...). They can only be opened as a separate one...

    But I don't say that it's impossible...

    I haven't tried the OLE embedding yet... So, I don't know much about that....
