Launch web page from a Dynamics GP 9 Form

I have a Dynamics GP 9 form with a added button that a previous developer had added which would pass a part number and launch an internal web page.

I need to add a similar function to another form but for the life of me I can't figure out how that was done
Any help?

Thanks

Hi,

I've never done that specific type of customization to launch a browser, but there are two techniques that I can think of to do that.

When you open the existing window with the custom button that opens a web page, look at the title of the window, in the upper left corner. Do you see a period before or after the window name? If so, that indicates it was modified using the GP Modifier & VBA tool. If this is the case, try pressing ALT+F11 to open the VBA editor and let me know if you see some VBA code.

If there is no period before or after the window name, that likely indicates it was modified using Dexterity, the native Dynamics GP. In that case, it is a customized Dex window and wouldn't be something you could reproduce without knowing Dexterity.

Let me know what you find.

Thanks,
