    Hi all,

    Was wondering how do you open a program from VB,

    e.g.

    Open "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"

    I want IE to display?

    Thanks JoePC

    You could also use Shell with is a VB function. Personally I'd go the API route like your good self but its handy to know the alternatives.
