PERFORM-ACTION-OPEN-URL new from User Tool - NOT ?

2006-08-24 Thread Steve Brown
I see a lot of discussion around this topic, but I just wanted to confirm:

... the 'new' verb does NOT work to launch a new Internet Explorer session 
when using the windows Remedy User Tool 

(using a button, and active link with a 'Run Process')

(even if I uncheck the resue window option)

PERFORM-ACTION-OPEN-URL new URL_string




Ironically this command is opening a new IE ... but I don't like 
hardcoding in this way: 
C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe $PS URL$

Also if Microsoft release a new OS, I don't know if IE will be located here

Steve,

Correct it will use an existing browser window if one is open.  However,
if you run IEXPLORE.EXE with the URL using a Run Process command it will
open in a new window each time.  I use this in my apps.

C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE www.google.com


Stephen

Or this:
rundll32.exe url.dll,FileProtocolHandler http://www.google.com

Maybe this also works:
start http://www.google.com
