Hi all,

I have a form that displays employee information (name, batch ID, etc...)

Is it possible to create a button on the form that when clicked launches IE explorer and passes a certain URL containing the ID of the person to the browser? I would like to be able to do something like the following when the button is clicked:

open browser, passing:

ID displayed on the form>&mailid=

Thanks in advance for your help!

I think you could add a line like this in your code :

shell iexplore <blahblah>/search.html?last_name=&first_name=&mail_zone=&phone_no=&corpid=<batch
