Hi
If all you want to do is go to a site, then you could use shellexecute to launch IE
The last parameter to this API sets the window state, ir maximized, hidden, minimized etc.
you wil of course need to load the API before you use it.
lnReturnValue=shellexecute(0,"OPEN","
www.mysite.com","","",1)
This should bring IE to the front.
But if you need to manipulate the web pages in some way you will have to use IE as a com object.
Hope this helps
Regards
Steven
