I am looking for the same solution! Why doesn't this work?

begin

end;

use Host Built in for this.

HOST('C:PROGRAM FILESPLUS!MICROSOFT INTERNETIEXPLORE WWW.YAHOO.COM');

call any operating system application using host built in and don't forget to put the path.

let me know if this answers your question

There is a restriction on this.

"Can only be used from within a form run from the Web"

Use Host built in.

Yes, the pll-file d2kwutil.pll contains several Window utilities that is very useful.
