Good day,

I am attempting to point the WebBrowser window to a local html file within
the working folder of the program. Working folder = folder where the exe is
located

Private Sub mnuViewWebBrowser_Click()
    Dim frmB As New frmBrowser

'NORMALLY SET AS...
    frmB.StartingAddress = " http://www.*-*-*.com/ "

'WHAT I WANT IS.....
    frmB.StartingAddress = "<working folder>/guide/index.htm"

    frmB.Show
End Sub

When I run the app, it wants to read the file location as an http:// address
(eg. http://guide/index.htm)
I want the WebBrowser to read from a file not an internet address.

HELP!!

Thanks,

Matt

Try file:///C|/<working folder>/guide/index.htm

That is exactly the problem I am facing. If I do not know where the user
will install the program, how do I know where <working folder> is?

TIA

Hello

The code "App.path" will return the path where your application is
installed.

Example:

Command1_Click()

Text1.Text = App.Path + "\Guide\Index.html"

End sub

Personally I Use This code to navigate my WebBrowser to a folder in the
working Path:

WebBrowser1.Navigate ( App.Path + "\MyFolder\MyFile.html")

If You need the slashes to be WEB-style ( / vs. \ ) then just find the
app.path and write some code for replacing the "\" with "/".

Hopes this helps, good luck!!
