Access Open Other Programs Seminar
By Richard Rost   Richard Rost on LinkedIn Email Richard Rost   10 years ago

Have you ever wanted to build a database to store an unlimited number of documents or other file attachments with each record? Perhaps you'd like to double-click on any of those files and have them automatically open up in the appropriate program? Open a Word document representing the employee's resume, or automatically have an Excel spreadsheet open up for the client's purchase order. Perhaps you'd like to click on a button next to the customer's address and have your web browser open up directly to that address into Google Maps?

1. How to display external images in Access Forms

4. How to determine which application to open
5. Use SHELLEXECUTE to open file in default Windows handler app
