You don't need the passport to go there.  You need it to get back in.

Gotta have a passport now just to go down to Tijuana for the day.

Could be but I was concerned that new passport requirements slowed things.

Cyberpony went lame around Calgary.  Had to wait for a fresh mount.  Thanks
to socialized medicine, however, he'll be right as rain in a couple of
months.

I think you right... definitely simplier... 

It also appears that the post took a couple of days to arrive. I could have
hand written it, mailed it and had it re-written out at the server. ;-)

Jim:

Thanks but I thing the followhyperlink method seems tres simple and it
works. That's the point at which I usually stop programming.

Hi Rocky:

You can set up the system so that when a particular file is identified the
application associated with the file extension will initiate.

I have some code to that solution if you would like.

Dear List:

I have a client who wants a list of file attachments as children to a parent
table.  No problem.  I get the path and file names  using the open file
dialog box.

But now he wants to be able to click the attachment text box (it contains
path and file name), and open the file with whatever program should open it
- .doc/.docx with word, .pdf with acrobat, .xls with Excel, .jpg with
whatever he's go it associated with, and any other file regardless of
extension (based perhaps on the association?).

Is there a way to general case this without knowing what application should
be used to open the attachment and exactly where the application is located?
