Hi guys,
Invoking a URL in a browser without using Run() function. This approach does
not involve scanning the registry for default association for .HTML type but
lets PB do the dirty work for you.
This is the source code for doing exactly this...
It uses a new PB 6.5 Class User Object INET to invoke the default Internet
browser.
--------------------------------------------------------------
inet luo_my_inet
string ls_URL
ls_URL = "http://www.hotmail.com"
GetContextService("Internet", luo_my_inet)
luo_my_inet.HyperLinkToURL( ls_URL )
---------------------------------------------------------------
Try it out....
Bye and happy Powerbuilding :-),
Karthik S.

I searched the registry to find which program is associated with a .HTML
extension (e.g. Netscape or Internet Explorer), then use a simply
RUN(ls_program + " " + ls_htmlPage). If I cannot resolve the program, I
tell the user, otherwise I let Windows do the work for me.
