    Question URGENT - make drop down box select open file automatically

    need this a.s.a.p.

    I have attached an example sheet with something that should be easy for you ...

    to sum up - need a drop down box - that when "flange" is selected - It opens a file automatically - no clicking etc. just when that option in the drop down box is chosen.

    thanks


    ps. what I tried initially was something like this..


    sub openfile()
    
    if range("d3" = "flange") then
    openfile thisworkbook.path "\file.pdf"
    end if
    
    end sub

    but doesn't work, plus means I have to click on something.. etc
