Look for ShellExecute in MSDN. -- jlr http://jlamas.blogspot.com/[^]

From MSDN:

::ShellExecute(handle, "open", path_to_folder, NULL, NULL, SW_SHOWNORMAL);

handle is the handle to your parent CDialog, path_to_folder is a string containing the path to your MSWORD document. ~RaGE();

You can use CreateProcess(...) for this. Look at it in MSDN. Steve Mayfield: "Coding in VB is like riding a tricycle...once you figured out how to peddle, its really hard to fall off." My Articles
