starting IE by clicking on a text (or button) in a VI.

[GAP]

Hi,
I just need to know if it's possible to start IE at a specified http address, just by clicking a text constant on a VI. (like a Word's text, which is linked to an Internet site).
Thanks.

One thing you could do is overlay a transparent boolean over a text indicator. To launch your browser, use Open URL In Browser.vi that's in _browser.llb in the help folder for LabVIEW 6.

Yes, this is possible.

In LabVIEW's help directory there is a library called _browser.llb that contain a vi called "Open URL in Browser". This vi will launch the specified URL in your default web browser.

Best regards;
