The short answer is no, C++ does not supply a command to open a website. If you are on a windows machine, you can use the ShellExecute(...) API. There is an explanation and a few samples on bcbdev.com. Check out the other FAQ's on the website as well. There is a section on windows stuff. Here is a link to the specific FAQ you are asking about:
