Simple question (I hope): How do I make my program launch a *.doc document?? I don't want to display the document in my program but have something like word open it. I thought this would be an easy way to write help documentation for my program, if the user asks for help then the program just opens the User Manual for him.

Thanks.
Jürgen Wellinger.

ShellExecute() with lpOperation = "Open" :) Hope that this helped! ;-)
