Re: Some help please

You can use a standard "shellexec" function, such as this one...

Private Declare Function GetDesktopWindow Lib "user32" () As Long
Public Declare Function ShellExecute Lib "shell32.dll" Alias "ShellExecuteA"
(ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal lpOperation As String, ByVal lpFile As String,
ByVal lpParameters As String, ByVal lpDirectory As String, ByVal nShowCmd As
Long) As Long
Public Const SW_SHOWNORMAL = 3
Public Function RunFile(ByVal strDocName As String) As Long
Dim RunAssociateFile As Long
Dim Scr_hDC As Long
Dim lngRes As Long
Scr_hDC = GetDesktopWindow()
RunAssociateFile = ShellExecute(Scr_hDC, "Open", strDocName, "", "C:\",
SW_SHOWNORMAL)
End Function

Use: Call RunFile(filename As String)
That will open the file you specify, with the program thats associated to
it.
