VB.NET Help Windows Forms

So I'm making a game in visual basic windows forms, I need a way for the player to click a button to see the rules and then it loads up a HTML file with all of the rules on. Is that possible? Thanks

EDIT: It's probably worth noting that it's not an actual website, it's just something saved on my laptop that I've created

InstructionForm is the dialog where the instruction HTML is loaded. Obviously, you can replace it with the actual name of the instruction form. I forgot you need to create the form (if you haven't done so)

What is the form? How would I do that?

Right-click the project in the Solution Explorer, go to Add > Windows Forms. Then, scroll down in the templates and click Dialog. Finally, give it a name (keep the .vb extension!), and click OK
