    Is there an API that will open notepad?

    More specifcally a text file in notpad? If so can someone tell me the code?

    For example, someone clicks a button and the desired text file appears in notepad.....

    You can just Shell Notepad and pass the file name as the command line argument.

    Code:
    Shell "C:\Windows\Notepad.exe C:\MyTextFile.txt", vbNormalFocus
