Default OPEN A FILE

Hello,
I would like to create a Macro that will open a file,
which could be located anywhere the user saves the file. I
was able to use:
Do
fName = Application.GetOpenFilename
Loop Until fName < True

Which works fine but when I doucle click on a file, it
doesn't open the file. So I know I'm missing more coding.
I need to open the file in Text TAB Delimited which Treat
CONSECUTIVE DELIMETERS as one.
I also used a different code
Workbooks.OpenText Filename:="M:\ZQCMTEST.XLS",
Origin:=xlWindows, _
StartRow:=1, DataType:=xlDelimited,
TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, _
ConsecutiveDelimiter:=True, Tab:=True,
Semicolon:=False, Comma:=False, _
Space:=False, Other:=False, FieldInfo:=Array(Array
(1, 2), Array(2, 1), Array( _
3, 2), Array(4, 1), Array(5, 1), Array(6, 1), Array
(7, 1), Array(8, 1), Array(9, 1), Array(10 _
, 1))
Which opens a specific file, but since the file location
might be different, I would like for the user to search
for the file and open as tab delimited.
Any help would be very appreciated.
Thanks,
Juan
