Calling maps.google.com from VFP?

[Michael]

Hi.

We have someone doing service calls who would like to have a button that
will call up google maps by passing the address & city of the client
currently on the screen. He has seen this done somewhere and was wondering if
we could do it for him as well. The app is currently in VFP6 but can be
converted to VFP8 if needed. Sample code would be appreciated.

TIA
Mike

All these things work - I'm sure you can take it from there. The web
engine seems smart enough to figure out the pieces of what you're
passing it.

Thanks for the reply steve. What I am looking for is the code to place inside
the click event of the button control. This is not a valid command. Thanks.

Sorry steve. Got it. Use a "Hyperlink Button" not standard button. Puts me in
the right direction.
