Good luck.

well .. i don't really need to creat a web service... i just want to open the ie and point it to a webpage..

Shell("C:\%win%\explorer.exe http://www.google.com/", 1) ... can someone help me fix this bit of code ?

Shell "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE" --- ok i fixed it ... now can anyone help me point it to a specific page

Just a idea:

What happens if you type something likw:

SHELL("http://www.name_of_website_here.com")

I reacon this might automaticaly open the site in the defult browser. But this is just a guese.

actually i figured it out lol

shell "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE http://www.google.com"

it works fine

Good, glad you figured it.

BTW, dose my sugestion work?

reply not sure... i figured it out right before i saw your post

I'm going to go through advanced VB this next semester. I had a lot of fun with VB and was quite impressed with how good of a language it is. For once, Microsoft impressed me.

Shell ("c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe http://www.google.com")

umm... I think he's probably either figured it out, or gave up after no one posting in this thread for 5 years.
