    build search engine and display webpage in forms, pls HELP !!!


    I'm new to MS access, my boss wants me to create a simple database. I pretty much finished. Now just trying to build a last form has search engine links on the left side of the form, such as google, ebay, or any other websites links that I want to add later on. Then when I click on those links, it can open a webpage on the right side of the form, which means within the form, instead of turning on internet explorer and display the page there. So basically I want to do research within my database if I need. I saw the template somewhere can be built this way and it looks very nice. Can someone give me any instruction on how to do it? does it require any programming ?

    Please help me
    thanks

    If you're using access 2007 or access 2010, you can add the new web browser control right on your form. One way to add the web page links is to use a list box with the values you want. Then add some code to the click event similar to this:

    Me.WebBrowser17.ControlSource = "='" & Me.List18.Value & "'"

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
