You will need to replace
C:\Userguide.r1w
with your path and file name

This should work if the file associations are correct; that is, if you can
manually open the .r1w file by double-clikcing its icon.

Within our company we use WRQ Reflections, as part of my job i programme vba
in both excel and Reflections.

I have managed to get Refections to open office applications when run, but i
can figure out the code to open a Reflections session from within Excel.

The extention for the sessions are .r1w

if anyone knows of any code i would be grateful.

Many thanks
