Does anyone now of an easier way to do this...

dim
Retval = Shell("C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE www.yahoo.com",vbNormalFocus)


I would like to be able to do it without having to put the directory path (C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\) in there? The reason is because I do not necessarly know the directory path, pluse, the user might have netscape or something else and I would like it to load as if I were to type it into the run menu...(Ex. www.yahoo.com)

Thanks in advace

Private Declare Function ShellExecute Lib "shell32.dll" Alias "ShellExecuteA" (ByVal  hwnd As Long, ByVal lpOperation As String, ByVal lpFile As String, ByVal lpParameters As String, ByVal lpDirectory As String, ByVal nShowCmd As Long)  As Long
 
Private Sub Command1_Click() 
   Dim OpenPage As Long
     OpenPage = ShellExecute(Form1.hwnd, "Open", "http://www.yahoo.com",  0&, 0&, 0&)
End Sub
