Passing CMD value through Outlook hyperlink

I

I've Got Questions

My db sends an email when a new item is submitted (using an Outlook
object). I want to include a CMD value as part of a hyperlink within
the email so I can use it to open the db and display the record using
Command().

I can't get the hyperlink to work. It will not open the database at
all. What is the correct syntax to use?

I am using:
<file://C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\MSACCESS.EXE C:
\Documents and Settings\User\Desktop\MyDatabase.mdb /cmd 27>

(in this case, 27 is the value I am trying to pass)

This works correctly if I paste the following into the Run... box:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\MSACCESS.EXE" "C:
\Documents and Settings\User\Desktop\MyDatabase.mdb" /cmd 27

Thanks
