Launching IE from SLX in a Citrix Published Application
Posted: 20 Nov 08 1:30 PM

This is "Part II" of the message I posted last week. Here's where I'm at...
The requirement is that I launch a web browser window from SLX 6.2.6 and have the window occupy the right side of the screen so that the SLX input fields are still visible on the left side of the screen.
There are two ways of launching a web browser from SLX that I am aware of....
Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
objShell.ShellExecute strUrl
AND
Set objShell = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
objShell.Width = 512
objShell.Left = 512
objShell.Navigate strUrl
objShell.Visible = 1
CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application") allows me to specify the window size & position, but launches IE in the same session as SalesLogix, which doesn't work from a Citrix published application, because the customer's Citrix configuration does not allow it.
CreateObject("Shell.Application"), when used in a Cirtrix published ap, opens the window on the host machine. Which is fine, except that I don't know how to control the size & position. If I use
Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
objShell.Left = 512
objShell.ShellExecute strUrl
I get an error.
So my possible solutions are:
1) Control the window size & position with CreateObject("Shell.Application")
2) Have CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application") create the object on the local machine instead of a Citrix session.
3) Configure Citrix to make 2) happen, or to allow a Citrix IE session when the URL comes from SalesLogix and is not youtube or other resource-eating site.
Does anyone know how to do any of these? |
