Hi moonoo,

I know that this is not exactly what you're asking for, but it works...

Private 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

Call ShellExecute(0&, vbNullString, "

vbNullString, vbNullString, 5)

you could use the reference to Microsoft IEnternet controls to use an IE object

Sub LaunchFileInIE(vstrFileName as string)
Dim ie As InternetExplorer
Set ie = New InternetExplorer
ie.Visible = True
ie.Navigate vstrFileName
End Sub
