And forgive me if I misunderstand your request, but your English is far
better than my Spanish!
So, you have a VFP form and textbox and the user can enter a STREET address
or a WEB address?
* Launch ANY default browser with the desired address
if ("http") = LEFT(textbox.value,4) && ASSuME web
theaddress = Chrtran(Alltrim(cAddress)
ELSE && Assume a street address. Use your Google Maps url above
theaddress = "http://maps.google.com/maps?q="+Chrtran(Alltrim(cAddress),"
","+"
ENDIF
ShellExecute(theaddress)
You can find many examples of how to invoke ShellExecute in the ProFox
archives, the Fox Wiki, or even the Samples app that comes with VFP + the
Foundation Classes.
