Application.FollowHyperlink Pass a value to web page

[bobdydd]

Hi Everybody

Access 2000, Windows XP

Is there any method by which I can pass a value from an Access 2000
form to a web page.

I am using Application.FollowHyperlink to open a web page but I need to
pass the value in a text box to the web page.

Grateful fo any replies

Bob

Have you looked into using the ExtraInfo parameter for the
FollowHyperlink() function? From memory, I think you can put additional
parameters in there.

Alternatively, would it be possible to form your URL beforehand (e.g.
store it in a String variable) and then manipulate it like:

myURL = myURL & "?paramName=" & myTextBox.Text

You could then be able to reference the paramName parameter in the
target web page.

Sorry I can't be of more help

Hi Nate

I never thought of either of those 2 ideas, I will certainly give them
a try and post results later.

Thanks
