I am trying to launch a website directly from MS Word and am having difficulty with the code. Could someone please point me in the right direction.

The website I am trying to launch is http://www.thedx.co.uk/.

Thanks in advance for any help

Try

ActiveDocument.FollowHyperlink “http://www.thedx.co.uk”

Note: a document must be open for this to work.

If you’re wanting to take things further, or get a bit fancier, you could consider using the WebBrowser Control in your VBA code.

I must say that responding to a post via Word 2000 is a feelingly neat trick for the first day of the month.

Thanks! (You’ve just ruined my long weekend (grin))
