Can you open Text File To Read From Access?

Cindy Lovell

I have created a User Guide for my MS Access system. I
was wondering if I can create a button on a screen with
code behind it to open this document from within Access.
Is this possible?

Thanks,
Cindy

You didn't say what program you created it in, but the
Shell() command will open up an external program and file.
See Help for an overview.
