Thank you R:azzak, Most of the time I just LAUNCH the HTML link and the default browser open in a new window. I have one form where the DB Web Browser is used to display a variable type .swf and I might have to modify that one.

Razzak Memon Sent: Thursday, October 7, 2021 10:12 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [RBASE-L] - RE: Tip of the Day: Edge Support for Web Browser Form Controls Javier, The Web Browser controls initially start at the lowest available version of Internet Explorer for backwards compatibility, and offer emulation for any specified IE version. A PROPERTY APPLICATION parameter exists to specify the Internet Explorer version to emulate, when displaying Web Browser controls in forms. PROPERTY APPLICATION WEB_BROWSER_EMULATION <value> The emulation value may be one of the following: 11000 = Internet Explorer 11 10000 = Internet Explorer 10 9000 = Internet Explorer 9 8000 = Internet Explorer 8 7000 = Internet Explorer 7 RESET = Resets the emulation value Note: The WEB_BROWSER_EMULATION must be set before any instance of a Web Browser control is created. Any change to WEB_BROWSER_EMULATION after a Web Browser has been created will take effect the next time the R:BASE program is opened. Examples: PROPERTY APPLICATION WEB_BROWSER_EMULATION 11000 PROPERTY APPLICATION WEB_BROWSER_EMULATION RESET Very Best R:egards, Razzak.
