menu / toobar item for open file by name

[nastech]

is there a way to open a specific file, as a button on a toolbar? thanks

You may use the HYPERLINK formula in a cell, something like:
=HYPERLINK("file://C:\Test\test.xls")

Change the "C:\Test\test.xls" part to the file you want to open, and the
link will launch the file you select.

Hope this helps,
Miguel.

thanks, that worked; from that I also found using hyperlink in a toolbar
worked as well.
(for others: right-click any toolbar, custom, insert, hyper-link, drag-drop
it to a tool-bar, click: asign link, drill down to your file name).
