I am self taught and know very little about exe and com. I make forms that
call other forms and store procedures like GoURL in the program directory
and attach them to the click method of a button. Below is GoURL
FUNCTION GoURL
**********************
* CALL UP WEB BROWSER
**********************
LPARAMETERS tcUrl
tcUrl = IIF(type("tcUrl")= "C",tcUrl,;
"http://microsoft.com/";)
DECLARE INTEGER ShellExecute ;
IN SHELL32.dll ;
INTEGER nWindowHandle, ;
STRING cOperation, ;
STRING cFileName,;
STRING cParameters,;
STRING cDirectory,;
INTEGER nShowWindow
DECLARE INTEGER FindWindow ;
IN WIN32API ;
STRING cNull,STRING cWinName
RETURN ShellExecute(FindWindow(0,_SCREEN.caption),;
"Open",tcUrl,"","c:\temp\",0)
And I call it with a DO ... WITH
Now how do I call firefox instead... I have done amazing things [TO me] with
Foxpro, a few books, and this forum's help.

Hi Gary,
what's the code in GoURL?
BTW, it's better if you do not hard code paths in your code as it makes
moving things around a pain.
Just call the program like this:
DO GoURL WITH "whatever"
and make sure GoURL is in your path or compiled into your exe/app
