Answer 1

must this web page be contained within outlook UI? you have following options:

1. using process.start to display that page in default web browser outside outlook

2. use winforms to show window winthin outlook with embedded webbrowser control that will display that page using IE, no matter the default browser

3. use Folder.WebViewOn and WebViewURL to display that page as a folder view (and set that folder using ActiveExplorer.CurrentFolder)

Hi dharma12,

You are able to create a form and add a WebBrowser control in it. Then you need modify the code like this:

Function Item_Open()
	set objPage = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("第 2 页")
	set objBrowser = objPage.Controls("WebBrowser1")
	objBrowser.Navigate("http://www.google.com")
End Function
