Cory Posted June 4, 2005 Report Share Posted June 4, 2005 Made a macro to routinely check my ailing index server to make sure it stays up and email me if it goes down. Works great but there’s one annoyance. If I already have a web window open it launches the link in that web window obliterating my session. How do I make ME “Open in a new window”?

randallc Posted June 4, 2005 Report Share Posted June 4, 2005 Hi, Settings in IE6 "Reuse windows for launching shortcuts" - turn it OFF in Tools/Internet Options/ Advanced Tab/ Browsing (alphabetically in list) Best, Randall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jowensii Posted June 4, 2005 Report Share Posted June 4, 2005 I use this command when I need to ensure a new browser window is opened. Just put the web address in the "Program Parameters" field of the "Program Launch" command. Program Launch: "iexplore.exe" <LAUNCHDEL2:0:01C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe<PARAM>http://www.cyberguys.com2> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cory Posted June 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 Perfect, thanks. I like Randall's suggestion best but I hesitate becasue in the past these sorts of global solutions sometimes cause problems elsewhere so I'll have to remember Jowensii's idea too. You guys are the best, Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
