Hello

I am trying to make an VB program to open an excel workbook and just open it.

I have two forms. the first is a crude password system that if completed switches to form2. That is fine but i have no idea how to then make this form have a button to open the file.

I am using MS VB2005 expreess edition so would appriciate it told using that if possible

I have only done the tutorial in the program and so am not very advanced in the language.

Thanks in advance

TJ
