Open Word with a referenced Document

[Topher]

I'd like to know if its possible and if so, how? to open word thru access and have word open a document which is referenced in a table in access.

IE
TABLE1 has a field with "C:\readme.doc" in it

i have a button which will open word but how can i get word to open that readme.doc file automatically??

Check out the 'Document' command. This should guide you to where you want to go.
