Default How do I open a program(CADD) with VBA

I'm nearly done with my drawing index and it was brought up that i
would be nice to have the program once it found a drawing have th
option to open it in Bentley Microstation(Our CADD program)

I figured out how to open the program(via the executable), but I ca
not figure out how to open just a specific drawing(aka file
"drawingnumber.dgn") automatically.

The drawings will all be stored in the same directory on our network s
navigation through folders is not needed.

Basically need to know how to simulate the command a double click on
drawing runs. Choosing microstation as the program with which to ope
the file.

Thank you in advance,

Bryan M
