How to set the homepage?

[jeba]

Hi there!
How can I set the default home page of the browser(Both Netscape and IE)? Even if the user set it to their own home page, that should be overriden by mine in the next instance of the browser. I know this is something to do with the registry, but I dont know where in registry.
One more related question-> How to start one more instance of the browser automatically, when the browser is started?

Please help me.

HKEY_CUURENT_USER\Software\microsoft\internet explorer\Main\Start Page

thats the registry entry but i'm sure theres an easier way to do it...probably some api call...
and to open another instance u should just pop up a new window with some asp code....

i'm guessing its asp

Can you reword that, I don't quite understand what you are trying to do.

'Only allow one instance of your project
If App.PrevInstance Then End

Oh, I think I know what you are trying to do. See if a window is loaded and if it is, than you want to start another one.

Public Declare Function FindWindow Lib "user32" Alias "FindWindowA" (ByVal lpClassName As String, ByVal lpWindowName As String) As Long 

Dim winHwnd As Long 
winHwnd = FindWindow(vbNullString, "Title of Program") 
If winHwnd <> 1 Then 
Shell "c:\browser.exe", vbnormalfocus
End If
