\\\Set a reference to SHDocVw.dll and one button on a form
Public WithEvents Explorer As SHDocVw.InternetExplorer
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Explorer = New SHDocVw.InternetExplorer
Explorer.Visible = True
Explorer.Navigate("http://msdn.microsoft.com")
End Sub
////
I hope this helps a little bit?

Son,

Sorry that is so easy in a long format it can much shorter however now you
see what happens

\\\
Dim p As New Process
Dim pi As New ProcessStartInfo
pi.arguments = "c:\"
pi.FileName = "explorer.exe"
p.startinfo = pi
p.Start()
///

I hope this helps better,

Cor
