Then I would make it table driven, linking the component ID of the bit button to the URL. You would need to associate the bit button with some description the owner would recognize when presented with an Edit Form to set the properties for each bit button. Something like how we would describe the location of a particular applet in an application, Maybe: MainMenu>SomeValueOnDropDown>SomeSelection

This could be in a hint in an edit box.

In the EEP of the bit button, select the URL from the table matching the CompID of the bit button and set the variable of the URL to it before calling your Browser form.

Let me clarify

The external form file is a main menu that has a number of bit buttons to
connect to forms and reports in a database also on that external form file
there are other bit buttons that connect to specific web sites through a web browser object. I would like to give the owner of the application the option
to set the url to the web sites of his/her choice.
I use this same external for my application I only open 1 eff form at a
time.  I am using rb76 I am aware that v9 has
An object 'link label' that could be dynamically changed with a set up menu.
I am trying to emulate that process

Clarify if you are going to open multiple different EFF forms with Browser
Objects on them at one time.

Good morning and Happy New Year to all,



I have an external form file that has a number of bit buttons that open
other external forms. The other external forms contain variable web
browser
objects.

In developing an application where a user could change the url's that are
linked to the form , I realize that there would have to be a setup menu
where a user  could be prompted to enter his/her desired url, but what
would
be the command in the eep to change the url in external form file.
