DeltaV Embedded Web Browser

I'd like to use a string variable as a URL for the browser. It seems this can't be done directly as "Me.Webbrowser1.Navigate strVar"... I've tried embedding quote marks in the string as you would have with a normal hard coded text URL here. What would be the correct syntax or function to convert the strVar to a URL?

  This is the code I have used to launch a browser window from DeltaV Operate:
  
  Dim Path As String
  Dim ie As Object
  Path = "emersonexchange365.com"
  Set ie = CreateObject("internetexplorer.application")
  ie.navigate Path
  ie.Visible = True
  
  What behavior/error are you getting? My guess is you may have left out the last line that makes the object visible.

  Thank you very much for the reply... After seeing your code I went back and reviewed mine again. I did find an error and the URL as string is working. This one's on me. Problem solved. Thanks again.
