In this tutorial, we will create a hyperlink label in VB 6.0. I also created this tutorial in VB.NET using the LinkLabel Control but here in VB 6.0 there is no shortcut control for this.

Now, let's start this tutorial!

1.Let's start this tutorial by following the following steps in Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0: Open Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0, click Choose Standard EXE, and click Open.

2. Next, add only one Label named Label1 and labeled it as "Click this to go to Sourcecodester Website". You must design your interface like this:



3. Go to Project Menu and click References.


4. Find and Check Microsoft Internet Controls and click OK.



5. Now, put this code in your code tab.

1. Private
   
   Sub
   
   Form_Load()
   
2. Label1.FontBold = True
   
3. Label1.FontUnderline = True
   
4. Label1.ForeColor = vbBlue
   
5. 
   
6. End
   
   Sub
   
7. 
   
8. Private
   
   Sub
   
   Label1_Click()
   
9. Dim
   
   Ie As
   
   New
   
   InternetExplorer
   
10. Ie.Visible = True
    
11. Ie.Navigate "http://www.sourcecodester.com/"
    
12. End
    
    Sub
    

Explanation:

In our Load Event of our form, we make our Label1 to have a Bold Text, Underlined, and have a color blue to make a hyperlink image. Now, in clicking the Label, we initialized or instantiate variable ie as an InternetExplorer. InternetExplorer is a part of the Microsoft Internet Controls Reference. We make this visible, and when clicking the Label it will navigate to www.sourcecodester.com.
