I want to open a URL in an external Web browser within Access code!

[jimtmelb1]

Hi,

I have an Access 2000 database. On a form i have created a button. When the user clicks on this button i want it to open a new instance of the default web broswer and open a URL. In this case the address is a local html file that resides on the machine.

If the browser is open and the user keeps clicking on this button i DON'T want it to open a new instance each time.

Can anyone show me the code to complete this task.

Thanks
Jim

And what about the Application.FollowHyperlink method ?

Hope This Helps, PH.
