Actually not quite so simple.

The OPEN= line has to have an executable file as the first parameter after
the =

It won't work with a PFD, or HTML or any non-execyutable file. You
will need to use another methood like a bat file or a 3rd party app.

will give you some like to various 3rd party apps and how to do it
with a bat file.
