<>Opening a Word File<>

[Deleted member 28156]

Is it possible to open a Microsoft Word FILE using a macro(or even a query??)? I know how to open Word itself using a Macro by Selecting the Run App Command and typing in my Word address e.g C:\Word.exe . I have tried opening a word file using C:\filename.doc but no success, the address is correct as I've successfully opened it using Start, Run

Any help would be superb
Cheers All

Searching this forum is such a novel idea.

Pay attention to the ShellExecute method I am using to open a file in my
