Please help!  I'm trying to open a client's default web
browser to a specific site and I cannot figure out the
line of code.  Any ideas?

Hi,

The only way that I know is to use the ShellExecute API.

For example,

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

Dim ReturnValue As Long

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim ReturnValue As Long
    ReturnValue = ShellExecute(Me.hwnd, "", "www.microsoft.com", "", "", 0&)
End Sub

(simplest form).  Use a string variable to specify the URL, unless a literal
is sufficient.

Thank you so much for your assistance!  I got the code to
work when I used a string variable to specify the URL.  
Thanks again!  You saved me a lot of trial-and-error!  Nate
