Can you launch windows map app from Access

Hi

I use an Access DB on my windows tablet, can I launch the windows maps app I downloaded from the windows store through a Cmd button?

If so how?

Thanks

You can launch anything.....

Call SHELL(program-path)

Thank you

I have been using the Shell function for launching other programs but I dont know how to launch a downloaded App. It seems impossible to find the file path for the windows map app.

any advice?

Thanks

if its a web site, launch the URL.
but if its an app, ON the site, then no.

I thought you already installed the app.

so, I have already downloaded the windows map app on to my tablet.

Now I want to know if I can launch it through Access and paste the current forms address into the search bar on Windows maps.



Thanks
