Re: MI Opening HTML pages within MapInfo

[Graham Smith]

I've seen these programs where you can click on a map object and it links to a url. What we really want to do is write html to a file from within an MBX to create a formatted report (that's the easy bit!), then to open that html page in a web browser without having to exit the MapBasic application - in other words, once the file is written, not have to manually go into Explorer to view the report. We wrote a short DLL in Visual Basic and have tried calling this, but with no success (VB skills not too hot!).   Graham     -----Original Message----- From: Andy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Graham Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 24 March 2000 12:04 Subject: Re: MI Opening HTML pages within MapInfo have you looked at linkplus - i think it's available at spatialnews.com, and you might be lucky enough to get the code too to look at.   ----- Original Message ----- From: Graham Smith To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 22, 2000 1:27 PM Subject: MI Opening HTML pages within MapInfo Dear List,   I want to write something in Mapbasic which would allow you to open HTML pages within MapInfo.   Can you help at all.     Regards,     Jackie
