Hello again, I have run in to another problem. I now can save documents,
whether its excel, pdf, word, etc in to a common folder. But now I want to
set up a listbox where they can double click on the item they want and it
automatically opens up the file.

Is there anyway to do this with a hyperlink or something like that...
because I don't want to create different instances for each type of file that
can be clicked.

Any help would be greatly appreciated... thanks!
