how do i open a batch file from access

[Guest]

I need to run a batch file from Access. Any Ideas?

Where C:\ is the path to your batch file; modify the path as needed:

Private Sub CallBatchFile_Click()
Shell("C:\YourBatchFileName.bat")
End Sub

Two options comes to mind

1. Application.FollowHyperlink "FullPath\FilenName"

2. Shell "cmd.exe /C ""FullPath\FilenName"""
