Maybe you'd prefer this:

'General:
Private Declare Function ShellExecuteAny Lib "shell32.dll" Alias "ShellExecuteA" 
   (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal lpOperation As String, ByVal lpFile As String, 
   ByVal lpParameters As Any, ByVal lpDirectory As Any, ByVal nShowCmd As Long) 
   As Long
 
 
'code
Call ShellExecute (hWnd, "open", "http://www.mendhak.com/", vbNullString, vbNullString, 1)
