Opening URL Without Opening Browser

[steve2507]

Hi,

I have a database that has to interact with a website at times. However these interaction cause the page to open which then has to be closed.

I can use this code

<script type="text/javascript">
window.close()
</script>

to close the window but it still requires some intervention from the user.

I'm using this to open the link

Application.FollowHyperlink url

Is there anyway to get Access to run a web file (asp in this case) without it actually opening a browser?

Thanks

Steve
