Can you detect the client type in visual studio tools?
Ultimately, I'm looking to create links as buttons on GP forms to open external web sites, but the way i do it on a desktop client (using an old fashioned ShellExecuteA) doesn't work in the web client.
i'd hope to detect the webclient in code to be able to alter the method used to open the web site.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Hi Jeff
You can also use the Dynamics.Functions.IsWebClient.Invoke() function
This is what we use from Dexterity.

int iClientType = Dynamics.Forms.SyVisualStudioHelper.Functions.DexRuntimeGetClientType.Invoke();
String sWebSite = ;
if (iClientType == 1) //Desktop Client
Process.Start(sWebSite);
else //Web Client
Dynamics.Forms.SyVisualStudioHelper.Functions.DexUtilityLaunchUrl.Invoke(sWebSite);
Does what i needed
Thanks
