    Programmatically launch Internert Explorer from a Button control.

    I need to start IE using vb after I click a button control on my Infopath form, and need to know what 'Imports' I need as well.  Anyone have a suggestion?

    Why use VB? Why not just use a HTML link that looks like a button?

    Well, we'll need a little more information, especially about this 'Imports' stuff that you refer to.

    In the designer, go to Data Source in the taskpane and add a field. Choose data type of Hyperlink (anyURI). Click OK. Drag the new field to the view. Now you have a link in your view. You can format it to look like a button. You'll have to use rules to set it equal to the link you want to let them click on. Good luck!
