Given the path and name of some file, how can I open it from a user form?

It depends what you mean by open it.

If you want to open it in an exteral program e.g. word or excel then use the shell command.

Shell("c:\somefile.xls")

if you want to open it and process it within your application then it really depends on what the file is.

I can't find out why it keeps showing with Shell run time error 5, saying "Invalid procedure call or argument"...
