This is such a stupid question, Im almost too embarrassed to ask. Can anybody tell me how to open a saved Word doc from a command button. I just cant seem to find out how to do it. Thanks in advance.

Hi There

This seemed to work for me as an on click event


Private Sub CmdQuickWins_Click()
DocName.Verb = -2
DocName.Action = acOLEActivate
End Sub

Try this in the onclick event of your button...

FollowHyperlink ("X:\Files\YourWordDocument.doc")
