You could use the macro action RunApp. Put the path to Word and the path to
the document in the command line of the macro processor.

"c:\program files\microsoft office\office\winword.exe" "c:\My Documents\Memo
xxx.doc"
 
thanks for that...will try it tommorrow.
just incase though...if anyone else has any other suggestions can they
please post them please. thank you. david
