Try below watch for wordwrap. All this is one line.

Call Shell("c:\program files\microsoft
office\office\winword.exe FILENAME", 1)

Hey Jim,

I tried the code below but it is not working out. I keep
getting a run-time error 53 that the file is not found.
This is what I had:

c:\program files\microsoftoffice\office\winword.exe
C:\Documents and Settings\user\Desktop\Frequently Asked
Questions.doc", 1)

I specified the path of my file and then its name. What
am I doing wrong? Thanks
Diana
