Im Back And need help with Internet Explorer

[Droidking]

Ok
Well now that my loop is working I was hoping some one chould tell me how to make Internet Explorer go to a web site when I press a butten on my form
Thanks

P.s. the form will also hide and do other stuff when the butten is pressed

The simpliest way is to use ShellExecute:

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()
    ShellExecute Me.hwnd, "Open", "http://www.vb-world.net", _
      "", "", vbNormalFocus
End Sub

Good luck!

where do I put the

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

API declarations would usually go in a module but you can put it in a form if you put "Private Declare Function ...."

I'll nip in here & answer this bit!

put a private before that and place the code right at the top of the form (above everything else).

Hope this helps!
