[thelist] any possible way to launch an IE browser window usi ng vb , auto run shell, etc...

[Ornstein, Ian]

How are you to kno where it is installed?
It could be on another disk.
I suspect you will have to read the user's registry
to determine the path to the IE .exe
Once you have the path, you can call ShellExecute....

I need to launch an IE browser window on the users computer even if they
have a different preference set to view internet files.
Is this possible? I have permissions, So this isn't a problem.
