SysRoot = Split(Environ(20), "=")(1)

You can't rely on the system root folder being the 20th item in
the Environment variables. On my machine, Environ(20) is the
Processor Identifier. Instead, use

SysRoot = Environ("SystemRoot")

Damien,
Here's one way:
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
Dim SysRoot As String
SysRoot = Split(Environ(20), "=")(1)
Shell SysRoot & "\explorer.exe /e, G:", vbNormalFocus
End Sub

I need a coding solution to the following: I have a command
button on a
sheet
which is to open a Windows Explorer Directory. I have
previously used
hyperlinks to open and show the user with the following code
(with
button).

Range("V8").Select
Selection.Hyperlinks(1).Follow NewWindow:=False,
AddHistory:=True
Range("A1").Select
Application.ScreenUpdating = False

I was wondering if there is a better way to do without having
the
hyperlink.
