I need help in creating a macro that opens a certain Microsoft Word file on my computer. Any help would be appreciated.
 
in the macro use the action RUNAPP
in the command line at the bottom of the screen put:

"l:\msoffice.972\office\winword.exe" "d:\GRDocs\Ginger.doc"

include all the quotes. the first part is the path to winword.exe (maybe "c:\program files\...." on your machine) and then a space and then quotes again, the second path is obviously to your doc.

good luck--g
