Using the properties editor pane on the right hand side of the IDE under appearance change your text to "whatever.you.wish" then under font setting select underline. //Mouse Enter Me.MouseCursor=System.Cursors.FingerPointer me.textcolor=&c0000FF //MouseExit me.textcolor=&c000000 //MouseDown ShowURL "http://www.someURL.com"; _________________ Real Studio 2012 R2 SysInfo BackTrack Linux/BackBox Linux/Debian Lenny/Windows 7/Windows 8/OpenWRT/OpenBSD Top charonn0 Post subject: Re: Total n00b Question - Need About window txt to link to UPosted: Thu Feb 07, 2013 1:31 pm Joined: Mon Apr 02, 2007 2:08 am Posts: 1111 Location: San Francisco, CA, USA Set the color and default underline state of a Label control using the window designer. Then, in the MouseDown event of the Label, put something along these lines: Function MouseDown(X As Integer, Y As Integer) As Boolean ShowURL("http://www.example.com";) End Function This will give you a basic clickable Label-based link. You can embellish it using other events (e.g. change the color in the MouseEnter event and then change it back in the MouseExit event.) _________________ Boredom Software Top otosnede Post subject: Re: Total n00b Question - Need About window txt to link to UPosted: Thu Feb 07, 2013 1:43 pm Joined: Thu Feb 07, 2013 12:45 pm Posts: 3 Awesome, thanks for the replies... combination of the two solutions worked for me!
