      You cannot "attach" a file to a VB application. What are you looking to do with this file?

          Process.Start("MyDocument.Doc") would load the document using the associated program although I would suggest using one of the many free HTML Compilers (creating CHM file) or a help file creator. Failing that I would save the final document as a PDF file.
