Opening a link in Chrome

[Locopete99]

Hi Guys,

I'm putting a button on my database to open a link to a web based database.

I have two problems here.

1) The web based database doesn't really work with IE and needs Chrome
2) Work decided to move over to a Virtual desktop, so I can't use the "Shell......." method as the local systems that the users will be using will not have the c:\ directory to the CHrome exe.

Is there another method, similar along the lines of

AppActivate "Chrome"

that I can use that will actually paste in the URL?

My current code I've tried is

Dim URL As String
AppActivate "Chrome"
URL = "http://10.105.80.154/epics/"
Application.FollowHyperlink URL

If you make Chrome the default browser on the virtual desktop simple Application.FollowHyperlink should work.
