Option on Switchboard which opens a Word Document

[Guest]

I have a database that i want to include user help notes. I want to have an
option on the Menu which if clicked, will open up my word document (user
notes).

I know how to add a new function to the switchboard but not sure how to link
'Word' document to the database

Any idea's?

You can use the FollowHyperlink method:

Application.FollowHyperlink "c:\FolderName\DocumentName.doc"

I have gone into the switchboard and gone into the option i want to edit e.g.
'help'

I have gone into command and the only options i have are:

Go to Switchboard
Open form in add mode

open report
design application
exit application
run macro
run code

Which option do i select?
