Website Links

[Hawk_Boy]

Quick question,

Hw do you make website links in VB 6.0? For instance, when you click on a button it takes you to a specific website.

Just use the Shell command to fire up IE with the address of the site - e.g. "iexplore.exe http://www.mtavc.com"

If you want to fire up the user's default browser (not necessarily IE), it's slightly more complicated. I'd read the location of the default browser from within the registry, but there may be an easier way via an API call.

Could you give me the code for that? I;am a beginner for VB 6.0

Command Sub Click1
Shell Http://www.yourwebsite.com
End Sub

Maybe something like that im a noob to.

I thought Shell was only for executable files. I think you'd need the ShellExecute API call to do that (if I recall correctly - it's a long time since I last programmed).
