WinCC calling a website

[userxyz]

Hi,

Anyone knows how to call a website via a button on a WINCC ?

It must be something like:
Set objWshShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
objWshShell.run ...

But on an other PC we run WinCC Webnavigator, so whatever browser is default on that PC, the URL should be called.

Thanks in advance,

Kind regards,
G

could X86 be problem on program path with space.

Try shortened program path instead or "c:\... "

c:\PROGRA~1\
c:\PROGRA~2\

you can see short paths on cmd prompt with dir /x
