I tried the following:
x = Shell("http://www.microsoft.com", 1) #AND#
x = Shell("www.microsoft.com", 1)
.... but Access 2.0 moaned & groaned complaining...
File not found. Error Code 53
Possible causes: A Kill, Name, or Open statement refers to a file that
doesn't exist. Your program tried to call a procedure in a DLL and the
library file name specified in the Lib clause of the Declare statement
can't be found.
I'm afraid I'm still in the dark.

Oops... forgot to mention I was trying to do this from Access 2.0...
(sorry)
How can I hit www.someplace.com from an Access form?
I'd like to...
1) open user's default browser (if not already open)
2) type in a URL
3) press enter (or click Go - or - whatever it takes)
I'd like it all to happen when user clicks button on form.
