Internet Links

[sawindel]

Hi -- I've created a database that holds all of my companies Material Safety Data sheets, but I want the end-user to be able to click on a button and open up the actual sheet on the web. Each Sheet has it's own specific website address, so I have to be able to link based on URL is entered into a specific field. I can't seem to even find out how to like Filemaker to the internet.

Any thoughts

Ok, I figured out how to link to a URL based on a field value, but it only works if Internet Explorer is already open. How do I write a script to open Internet Explorer.

thanks in advance
