Open Internet Explorer 1

[ranc]

Hi,

How can I open an Internet Explorer (even if it's not the default browser) window using VB ?

ran -- you could use the shell() function and just call iexplorer directly

You can use the CreateObject function:

Sub StartIE()
Dim MyWeb As Object
Set MyWeb = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application&quot
MyWeb.Visible = True
MyWeb.navigate "

http://www.microsoft.com";

End Sub

Or, add Microsoft Internet Controls to your references.

Sub StartIE2()
Dim ie As InternetExplorer
Set ie = New InternetExplorer
ie.Visible = True
ie.AddressBar = True
ie.Navigate ("

http://www.microsoft.com";)

End Sub
