Opening HTML page (1 Viewer)

[sgtblitz]

Hi there,

Is there any VB that I can assign to a button to open an offline HTML page that I have created onClick?

Thanks

Just "Shell" it, should automigicaly open with Explorer...

shell "C:\Test\test.html",vbMaximizedFocus

Lookup the shell command in the help for more info

ahh, but im getting an error for some reason, I entered the following:

Private Sub Command22_Click()
Shell "C:\Documents and Settings\Daniel\My Documents\New Briefcase\2516\TheKingsHouseSystem\Test.html", 3
End Sub

but i get an error saying:

"invalid procedure, call or argument"

Im guessing ive forgotten something (im not so profficient at VB )

any help please?

This works tho
shell "Explorer H:\Test.html",vbNormalFocus

I personally prefer to use the FollowHyperlink method:

FollowHyperlink "File:///C:\Documents and Settings\Daniel\My Documents\New Briefcase\2516\TheKingsHouseSystem\Test.html"
