Launching an executable

[Charles Tam]

How do I launch an executable from Access code?

 

[Allen Browne]

Use the Shell function, e.g.:
Call Shell("C:\MyFolder\MyApp.exe")

Or use FollowHyperlink if you just want to use whatever program is
registered for the file type, e.g.:
Application.FollowHyperlink "C:\MyFolder\MyFile.jpg"
