newbie: Shell out to Inet explorer from visio

R

Ronio

OK, I'm having problems with the hyperlink function. So I decided to just
shell out and start an instance of internet explorer.
However, I can't seem to get the Shell function to work for me. Any ideas?

Here is what I'm using.......
Sub shellout()
fp As String
fp = "c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe"
Shell (fp)
End Sub

Just get a generic "System Error &H80004005. Unspecified error" at run-time.
