Where I need my client to go to a specific web address, from within my
apps, I have always taken the following approach

   Local loIE
   loIE=Createobject('internetexplorer.application')
loIE.Navigate( "http://www.nzpost.co.nz/tools/address-postcode-finder";)
   loIE.Visible = .T.

But, what should I do where they use Chrome or Firefox, and Internet
explorer is not on the pc ?

Hi Sytze,

1) IE I think is always on the Windows machines, and since it's a VFP app, it's gotta be a Windows machine.

2) Use ShellExecute and pass the URL as the parameter. That will invoke whatever the native browser is.

3) Get excited like Steve Ballmer (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edN4o8F9_P4&feature=kp)

(Ok, that last one was just a funny based on Jeff's post about Ballmer in the news.)
