Opening Notepad from Excel

A

Ayo

I am trying to write a VBA code that does the following:
1. open Notepad from inside Excel
2. Save a blank file (i.e, Save as Test.kml)
3. Close the Notepad

You want a 0 byte file?

Option Explicit
Sub testme()

Open "C:\Test.kml" For Output As 1
Close #1

End Sub

Be careful with this. If that file exists, then it's emptied. If it doesn't
exist, it'll be created.

(Change the path to what you want.)
