This is correct answer, my 5. OP can formally accept it (I recommend it.)
However, please see my alternative solution -- in many cases it would be better.

your solution is great. This will help us open the page on our window (including navigation). :)

Of course, it was also my solution, and I am the only one who answered the other half of the question, but, whatever.

Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov 6-Jul-11 15:20pm

I see. Sure, credited :-) Thanks for the note.

Solution 2

Use Process.Start, and point to the URL you want to open, it will open it with the default browser. That's a windows app. In a web app, you just put a hyperlink, and put target="_blank", so the link opens in a new window.

What do you mean 'better' ? Someone gave you the exact code, I see, but I told you exactly what you needed to do. If you could not understand me, I suggest you forget your current task and do a beginners course in C#.

Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov 6-Jul-11 15:20pm

Exactly, a 5.

All those runs of some applications are not good — the use knows better what to start and how. As you need to start certain URL, it's not that bad — you already have a correct answer by 2irfanshaikh.

But the real alternative would be running a browser inside your application. Just use the class System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.webbrowser.aspx[^].

That was for System.Windows.Forms. There is such thing for WPF as well: System.Windows.Controls.WebBrowser, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.controls.webbrowser.aspx[^].
