27 New Member

I am new with access and I am trying to insert my first hyperlink into my form. Here is the situation: I have a checkbox on the form. When it is clicked, a have a messagebox appear that asks (Do you want to launch website www.blahblahbla h.com? Yes/No). I've gotten this far, I just don't know the VBA syntax to launch the website.

Can you help me?
Thanks!

Assuming your Check Box is named chkNavigate, the User will be prompted to navigate to Yahoo.com, and if he/she responds Yes to the Prompt, he/she will be taken to Yahoo's Home Page. The Home Page will be opened in a New Window and the Hyperlink will be added to the History Folder. Any problems, let me know.

  1. Dim strMessage As String, intResponse As Integer
  2.  
  3. strMessage = "Do you want to launch website www.Yahoo.com?"
  4.  
  5. If Me![chkNavigate] Then
  6.   intResponse = MsgBox(strMessage, vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Navigation Prompt")
  7.     If intResponse = vbYes Then
  8.       Application.FollowHyperlink "http://Yahoo.com", , True, True
  9.     End If
  10. Else
  11.   'no need to do anything here

I want to prompt the user to confirm a delete, however, I am paranoid that they may accidentally hit enter key and delete.

Hey, Can someone please clarify, confirm, or set me straight on my understanding of a standalone="yes" attribute in the xml version element? I assume it means that the xml document containing it is standalone, and does not refer to any external document to define types. In other words, it doesn't use an external dtd to validate any types - everything used would be defined within the doc itself. In other words, you would never see an xml...
