I am using Access 2003 and I am developing a document directory in which I am
storing a file path for each folder and document described in the directory.
I want to be able to select a folder and open it from within the Access
application (in a separate window) by clicking on a button and using the path
name in the current record. Can you tell me if this is possible and if so,
how I can do it. Thanks.

you mean like the browsefolder API?
should be one of the first few articles here: http://www.mvps.org/access/api/index.html
