 newbie: launch default webbrowser?

Howdy!

I'm looking for a way to code a button to launch the default installed
webbrowser to a pre-determined website.  This seems like a normal thing to
try, but I haven't found the right way to ask the help menu.  So I'm asking
here.

Anyone interested in mentoring a real newbie?

thanks
Dwayne

Thanks for your reply!

Where can I find more information on the ShellExecute command? VB5 help does
not have any info on it and the code is returing sub or function not
defined.

Again thanks for the help, I have alot to learn!

Sorry about that.  I left out:
    '
    '   Shell execute
    '
    Private 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
