Default Jump from Excel to another application

What you would need to do is the open the application which can easily be
done and then activating the apllication window. Heres is the problem. You
would only be able to use short cut keys to move around in the application.

So yo can only perform functions where there is a short cut like on excel if
you look file menu you will see the shortcut is Cntl+S. This is the shortcut
for saving a file.

The other option is if the application is web based. You could run the
application by opening a web browser and performing the commands you want
through a web application.

I often want to jump from an excel (2007) cell to an form (screen) in
the erp-system Dynamics Ax 4.0.


E.g. You have a pivottable in excel with all itemnumbers. If you
rightclick at one of the numbers my idea was that you was offered "Go
to Ax" and was send to an Ax screen showing the itemtable.


I don't know how it schould be possible, but I am sure that it would
be appriciated.
