The FoxDraw manual - B0700BE - describes how to use "shortcut menus." These menus can run scripts. Scripts can run any command line program that you might have. I've never tried it, but it is reasonable to think that web browsers might accept a URL as a command line option. If so, you could do it that way. Otherwise, I suspect you could write a VB program that accepts the argument and tells IE what to do.
