In C# VS2010.NET I have:
try
{
string ieFullPath = System.IO.Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(
Environment.SpecialFolder.ProgramFiles), "Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe");
if (File.Exists(ieFullPath))
{
this.CreateProcess(""" + ieFullPath + "" "" + updatePage + """);
MessageBox.Show("A Run");
}
}
catch
{
MessageBox.Show("A Fail");
}
try
{
string ieFullPathX86 = System.IO.Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(
Environment.SpecialFolder.ProgramFilesX86), "Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe");
if (File.Exists(ieFullPath))
{
this.CreateProcess(""" + ieFullPathX86 + "" "" + updatePage + """);
MessageBox.Show("B Run");
}
}
catch
{
MessageBox.Show("B Fail");
}
I added in alerts and can see that both of the CreateProcess calls do run and neither of them causes an exception, yet on 64-bit Windows neither actually open a web page. Since neither throw an exception I also cannot 'detect' in the code that the problem occurred in order to show a suitable error message to the user, I can only see it when testing.
How can I enable the process of opening a web page so that it will work under 32-bit and 64-bit machines please? As the latter does not work for me at the moment. |

Hi Rabbit,
You can use the Navigate method of the IE object model to open an url in a separate IE window or tab. |
