log to a remote computer with a user name and password

[alfonso gonzales]

Hello
I need to be able to execute an exe file that is stored on a remote computer
in my LAN (I have the share path \\192.168.1.130\Lex\Lex.exe). But first I
need to log to that computer through its IP (for example, 192.168.1.130) and
user login and password (I know these, too) . Is there a way to establish
that connection using VBA from within WORD and to be able to execute the
file stored on that remote machine?

The Inet control, which you can put onto a UserForm, gives you access to the
Internet Explorer functionality, which might be sufficient for your
purposes.
