SYMPTOMS
In Visual FoxPro 6.0, using the Hyperlink control NavigateTo method to navigate to a Web page, picture file (.bmp, .gif or .jpg) or Active Document that contains Double-Byte Character Set (DBCS) characters in the filename does not do anything.



RESOLUTION
Use the Hyperlink button found in the _hyperlink.vcx Foundation Class library. This foundation class supports filenames with DBCS characters.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.



Steps to Reproduce Behavior
 In Visual FoxPro, open the Customer table in the \Samples\Vfp98\Data directory. Browse the Customer table and save the Customer table as HTML, and provide a name with DBCS characters. Create a form and place a command button and hyperlink control on the form.  In the Click event of the command button, place the following code: Thisform.Hyperlink1.NavigateTo()  Save and run the form.</li></ol>

NOTE: Click the command button, nothing happens and no error occurs.
