VB.Net Open Internet Explorer

[Guest]

I am currently migrating over from VB6 and I can't see to find a way to
launch a webpage in internet explorer from a hyperlink on a form.

There must be an easy way to accomplish this? I tried:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("Explore.exe", "http//webpath")
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("http//webpath")
Shell("InternetExplorer.application")

all attempts failed. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.
