How can I open multiple documents at the same time?

There are a handful of documents I use everyday. I would like to click once,
and have my computer open them all simulaneously.

They all have to be for the same program I tried opening different document
types using the method, just because I could, not because I really wanted to
open them and curious if it would work but nope windows didn't want to
perform the task so Open was not presented on the right click menu. So It
gives me an idea now for a macro test.

I never would have even thought to try that. Sounds like a good way to crash
a computer.

Something on your PC must be different, I selected a DOC and XLS and a
MDB, R-clicked an picked open and Word, Excel and Access all opened
their respective files.
