If you are using Access, the neatest way is to use:
Application.FollowHyperlink "full-Path-to-file"
eg
Application.FollowHyperlink "C:\My Documents\Filename.html"
which will open it in the default web browser.
If you are not using Access for VBA, I would use the Shell command to execute the "START filename" command which would have the same effect, but it opens a command prompt box in the background, which is a little less neat.
