How to open an embedded file?

N

Nord

Hi all!
I have inserted a file-object into my Word doc. The file is a simple
txt one, and I need to open and read it via VBA.
How can I do it? What must I write, something like:

open <filename> for input as #1 ...?

But what must I put in <filename>?

Thanks in advance.

Sorry, misread your post. You have to use the OLE Verbs on the object
to open it, pause with an OnTime, then you can access the new document
object.
