Function Run

[brett]

Hey, i remember you can some how run internet explorer, and with a parameter, you can specify the URL it goes to.

like this...

Run('C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE "$FTPURL"')

But how would u add a var as the URL it should go to?

Thanks,

Brett

FAQ #9 in the help file should answer that question.

I still can't get it, can you just post the code that would work?

Run('C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE "" & $URL')

Thanks

a string is either between single or double quotes.

in you case the whol;e thing is a string so the $URL or $FTPURL will not con that its value since it is treated as string...

example:

$FTPURL="http://www.microsoft.com"

Run('"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE" ' & $FTPURL)

Make sure you have a space between the exe and the web address though!

$FTPURL="http://www.microsoft.com"

Run('"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE" ' & $FTPURL)

It is there, just hard to see Edited May 13, 2004 by scriptkitty
