How to open Windows Explorer from Access? 2

[BlueTube]

Hi All,
I would like to open Windows Explorer and go to a specific location (i.e. C:\Myfolder\). I'm basically telling the user that the file he is looking for is on the network at a specific location and I would like to give him the option to open this location. I tried to use the Shell function, but I was unsuccessfull. Any thoughts?

And what about the Application.FollowHyperlink method ?

Hope This Helps, PH.
