Hi,
I have an "Alerts" client desktop application written in VB6 that
makes use of the web browser control (Shdocvw.dll). The application
displays a rolling list of alert titles, and when the user clicks on
one of the titles, an Internet Explorer instance should open with the
url address value stored with the alert properties.
This has been working fine for a long time now, but when clients are
using XP with Outlook (Office 2000), the link opens in Outlook rather
than IE (This only happens if Outlook has been started, and only on
certain XP machines).
Is there any setting on XP, Internet Explorer or Outlook that affects
this behaviour, and how can I configure them to open these links in IE
rather than Outlook?
Have tried with the Tools- Internet Options- Programs- checking
"Internet Explorer should check if it is the default browser.." but
with no results.
Regards,
Jan
