>How can I run a web page from my VB app? Can I just Shell("Shellex.exe \html\index.htm", 1)?

This will open a given web page in the registered browser. I added line continuations to the declaration for UT readability. In my code the declare is one line. Hope this helps, I will most likely be off line for the rest of the day. Taa Taa For now.

Public 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

startdoc = ShellExecute(Scr_hDC, "Open", "C:\temp\my.html", "", "C:\", 1)    'SW_SHOWNORMAL)
