Opening Files

[FBxiii]

Hi,

I am creating a database to store the names/locations of all files on our
system.

It is designed to be used for 'housekeeping'.

I want to be able to select a file from a list box, then double click to
Open the file.

The File can be any type (.mdb, .xls, .doc, etc)

I have tried using the Shell command, but keep getting an error - because
the file is not an .exe I am guessing)

Is there anyway of easily opening the files or do I need to 'hard code' it
in some way?

Any help is appreciated,

Cheers and Happy Christams,
Steve
