    Unlikely to get any implementation with compiler support for a compiler, that is almost 2 decades old. – IInspectable Mar 09 '18 at 12:30
  • @zett42 i ask only for VC++ 6.0 MFC application – balamurugan Mar 09 '18 at 13:59
  • If you have access to a recent compiler, you could use it to create a DLL that does all the things required for embedding the browser and exports a few simple C functions that could be used by the VC++ 6.0 application. This way you won't be limited by the feature set of VC++ 6.0. – zett42 Mar 09 '18 at 14:47

In order to open a URL in the default browser, you can try:

    ::ShellExecute(AfxGetMainWnd()->GetSafeHwnd(), _T("open"), lpszURL, NULL, NULL, SW_SHOW);
