As a quick and easy method to perform this task try the shell object
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
then call this with one of the two following commands.
Dim lng as Long
'email the internet site
lng = ShellExecute (frmMain.hwnd, "Open", "mailto:xxx@yyy.net", "", App.Path, 1)
'open the internet site
lng = ShellExecute(frmMain.hwnd, "Open", "
"", App.Path, 1)
I usually just put a couple of labels or picture boxes on the form with these in the click events
chat soon
