Welcome to vb section.

To open Internet explorer via button, double click the button on your form. Code window will open. Write the following code in the button's click event:

Code:

System.Diagnostics.Process.start("http://www.mpgh.net/forum/33-visual-basics/")

If you want to open windows explorer then use the following line:

Code:

Shell ("explorer")

Thanks will test when i have downloaded

A bit shorter and also working without any imports:

Code:

Process.start("link")

Also, do not use shell.

Code:

Dim proc As Process = New Process()
        proc.StartInfo.FileName = "explorer.exe"
        proc.StartInfo.Arguments = "" 'any arguments...
        proc.Start()

        proc.StartInfo.Arguments = "" 'any arguments...
        proc.Start()

The same can be done using shell:

Code:

Shell ("explorer.exe /arguments")

Though, it is not recommended to use shell anymore. Just live with it =P
