Paul D,
Thank you so much for your reply. I entered the code as you have it,
substituting yourfield.value for ItemNumber.value and received the
following
error:
An error has occurred in the script on this page.
Line 181
Char: 1
Error: permission denied
Code: 0
When I go to line 181, it is this line "objShell.ShellExecute myFile, "",
"", "open", 1"
Do you know what the problem could be?
I have worked on trying to set up a command button or at least an
alternative for quite some time and believe this is the only thing holding
up
posting dap for other users. Your time and help are greatly appreciated.
Thank you again,
Pam
