To run the default browser you can use the ShellExecute() API
DECLARE ShellExecute IN shell32.dll ;
 Integer, String, String, String, String, Integer

ShellExecute(0,"open","http://www.levelextreme.com","","",1)

>I am looking to do something that I thought would be fairly simple but running into a roadblock with VFP6. I want to add a menu option under the HELP submenu function using the procedure option to call a website URL using the system's default browser. Click and VFP launches the browser to goto www.xxx.xxx. I am not sure if this is something I am going to need to do with a 3rd party plugin or if it can be done with the command structure of VFP6.
