Just do a ShellExecute:

        IF VARTYPE(lcHelpFile) = "C" AND (FILE(lcHelpFile) OR
LEFT(LOWER(lcHelpFile),4) = "http") AND !EMPTY(lcHelpFile) THEN
                WAIT WINDOW NOWAIT "Launching help file..."
                LOCAL loShell
                loShell = NEWOBJECT("_ShellExecute", "_environ.vcx")
                loShell.ShellExecute(lcHelpFile) && mjb 01-21-05 added quotes 
to cover
for spaces in filename
                RELEASE loShell
        ELSE && mjb 12-28-04 added IF block to alert user if not found
                MESSAGEBOX("Cannot locate help file " + 
IIF(!EMPTY(lcHelpFile),"(" +
lcHelpFile + ").  ","(no help file set)") + ADMINMSG,16,"Help file not
found.")
        ENDIF

You could probably use about:blank for the destination if there is none.
