    Intenet Explorer

    Hint: locate the explorer file to initiate the program.
    second hint: pass the url you want to open.

    Re: Intenet Explorer

    You may want to head over to opennetcf.org and check out their cool, free stuff. If you do, something like this will work for you
    Code:
    imports OpenNETCF.WinAPI.Core
ShellExecute("\windows\iexplore.exe", "\windows\myfile.htm")
    Note that there's also a Mobile Development forum here.

    Re: Intenet Explorer

    Are you familar with the DllImport attribute and platform invoke? If not, you'll want to read up on that is MSDN - there's good explanations and plenty of sample code. I wouldn't bother, personally, you'll find plenty of good reasons to use opennetcf, but that's just my opinion and lots of other people too

    opennetcf stuff ships with source code, so if you want to see how they do it, you could check out their code.
