Action to open up a folder

[Julia]

Hi

Given this scenario, what would be the best option...

I have a database already running with records in it, each record has a scanned document saved in a file.

I want an option on the switchboard to open up this file so that the user can then find the scanned doc within the file.

Would it be a macro to enable this? I want to be able to click a button that opens the filepath. If it is a macro, could anyone tell me how to set it up?

Any other ideas would be great.

Thanks

You can use the shell command to open the Explorer.exe

I.e. Explorer "C:\Temp"

Will open the temp folder on your c drive...

I have this doen -

my approach is each record has a make folder (check samples)
so Network drive S (backslash) this keyboard dosen't have one then a folder say storage then the record number
12345

so S//Storage/12345
S//Storage/12346
etc

each record has a folder then I use again from samples open folder (tweaking them together seems to work ) it lists the files and you double clcik them to open - (It seems to work with ms office files ok - have heard that zip files are ify )
