Open spreadsheet with command button in form

Hello,

I am making a menu for a database, and for that I would like to have a
button that lets the user launch an Excel spreadsheet that can be used for
some calculations on the side.
I just can't get this to work though. I tried specifying the spreadsheet
file as an application, but Access won't launch it.
Using the pre-defined option to start Excel just opens up the program, not
my file.

How can I make this work?

Thank you.

I can cheat and create a hyperlink to my file, but it doesn't look as good as
a button would.
