How to put a Hyperlink on a Form?

[Hambone]

How can I add a hyper link to a form? I can't find any information on this, but I've seen it done on apps.

Thanks

try this:

x = shell("www.vbworld.net", 0)

Two ways of doing this. Use a Shell function:

Shell ("start http://www.vb-world.net"), vbHide

or use the ShellExecute api function.

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

Public Const SW_SHOWNORMAL = 1

Usage


ShellExecute Me.hwnd, vbNullString, "http://www.vb-world.net", _
vbNullString, "c:\", SW_SHOWNORMAL

dimava, the code you provided will not work because it has nothing to Shell it. The Shell function is for supporting exe's only. Unless you Shell the exe along with a command line parameter, as showed in the first example I gave.

one more way to do this is to simply using the
HyperLink component
