Using google in my database

[Paulsburbon]

Hi, I was wondering if it was possible to pass values I have stored in my database and open up internet explorer or something similar and insert the value into the field on the web page then hit search... I've been a copy and paste fool and I hope there is a better way to do this. Thanks.

Yes you can, search the site for Web Browser Control for some examples

Did the search...

But I'm not finding anything I can use. I downloaded a demo database most of the threads are about something else. Maybe a little detail I'm missing. I thought running a recordset and looping thru it one record at a time. When it goes thru one record it would bring up internet explorer, input the text i got from the query in the recordset, then I could Copy and paste a line of text into something else or an input box could come up and I can paste the text into that and then update the recordset. I've gotten a web page up and running but inserting and retrieving the data is my problem... Where should I look for that problem? Thanks.

Ok so I came up with this:
<Code>
Private Sub Command88_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Command88_Click
Dim strInput As String

strInput = "http://images.google.com.gr/search?q='" & Me!chrReplacedItemDescription & "'"
Application.FollowHyperlink strInput, , True

Err_Command88_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Exit Sub
End Sub
<\Code>

This opens up a google page however it does return a blank error... Any ideas?
