I am having a command button in excel worksheet.
When I click the button, a word document from c:\krishna\fff.doc should open.

Can anyone help me to achieve this task.

First put a button on the sheet and then right-click the button and assign
hyperlink:

file:///c:\krishna\fff.doc

Sir,

I didnot have the option "assign hyperlink". I am having "Assign Macro".

Make the button from an AutoShape rectangle.
