Anyway, I am writing an app to help some folks in a group I support. Once of the things I'd kinda like the app to do is bring up a webpage based on a given URL is the user makes a certain selection in the program. I'm sure this has probably been ask before, but I've searched some, and finding nothing, probably due to not using the correct words to search on. Anyway, thanks for any help, Michelle

Code: (Select All)
webpage$ = "https://qb64phoenix.com/forum/index.php"
SHELL _HIDE _DONTWAIT webpage$


Notes:

webpage$ is just a variable, call it anything you want, mywebpage$, url$, whatever.

_HIDE is used so the user doesn't see the command prompt of the SHELL open.

_DONTWAIT is used so the program continues to flow. Without it, the program will not advance until after the SHELL is closed.


I hope this is what you are looking for, and help get you started. Welcome to the forum. Glad you found your way here. The old site, QB64.rip is gone.

Pete
