The addessbar property is already .F. Basically this form is designed to show, by default a company home page. However if (a) there is no physical connection to the internet or (b) if an admin has blocked internet access from MyExecutable.EXE then we want to display the contents of a README.HTML which resides on the client machine instead. It is the second part that I am working on but I cannot seem to get the Windows Firewall to prevent access to the internet from within MyExecutable.EXE Paul -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:profoxtech-boun...@leafe.com] On Behalf Of Dave Crozier Sent: 12 March 2018 10:24 To: profoxt...@leafe.com Subject: RE: How to block internet access from within a VFP executable Paul, How about setting the OLE control "Addressbar" property to be .F. That way they won't be able to key in any web addresses.

I want to temporarily block internet access from this form using the Windows (7) firewall. I have created a new Outbound Rule pointing to MyExecutable.EXE but the form still loads and displays a web page. Any ideas?
