Hi,

Use the below code while changing just the file name:

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
Const SW_SHOWNORMAL = 1

Private Sub Command1_Click()

    ShellExecute Me.hwnd, vbNullString, "[B]C:\temp.doc[/B]", vbNullString, "C:\", SW_SHOWNORMAL

End Sub
