Launch page through standard windows command on custom ribbon button

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi experts,

My client houses some some data internally which they refer to regularly on their network database server.

I would like to create a button which launches and opens the directory via a simple File Open Command and Network Share/UNC Path. 

Can I launch a command like below? Kindly explain the approach I can take for this.

Command:

  • ShellExecute(0, PChar('Open'), PChar(xHelpFile), '', '', SW_SHOWNORMAL) <= 32

Where

  • xHelpFile = ‘\\DSICRM\CtelWin\Online Help\SW Latest\DSISWHelp.chm’

Thanks,

Jon
