I am trying to launch IE from a VBA macro in Excel. After a great deal of
web searching I came up with the following ...

Public Declare Function ShellExecute Lib "shell32.dll" _
Alias "ShellExecuteA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal lpOperation As String,
_
ByVal lpFile As String, ByVal lpParameters As String, _
ByVal lpDirectory As String, ByVal nShowCmd As Long) As Long

<some other stuff

Sub test23()
Dim WEB_SITE_URL As String
WEB_WITE_URL = "http://www.mysite.com"
Dim SW_SHOWNORMAL As Integer
SW_SHOWNORMAL = 1

'Launch Web Site
ShellExecute 0, vbNullString, WEB_SITE_URL, vbNullString, _
vbNullString, SW_SHOWNORMAL
End Sub

When I execute test23 I get a windows explorer window opening up to the My
Documents directory. No error messages.

I think that I am close. Could someone please help me get this to launch IE.

Thanks, Bob
