Hi All,
excuse me my simple question...
In my .mvba macro, I do some operations on text elements. After all changes are applied, I save new text contents to .txt file. So far, so good.
The problem is that I cannot open the file from .mvba. I tried Shell command and it didn't work.
My command was:
Shell ("C:\Documents and Settings\R\My Documents\test.txt")
and I got a message saying "invalid procedure or called argument".
What did I do wrong?
Maybe there is another way for opening text files? Thank you for any tip.

There's another way to open files of any type from VBA.
This article describes Windows File Associations, and a utility that you can call from VBA to open a document using its associated application. That is, you can open a Word, Excel, Text or whatever document.
