Default Open Windows Explorer from Excel and select specific file

Hi,

I have a collection of documents for overview in an excel sheet and I
would like to be able to click a button to trigger Windows Explorer to
open and for the selected file to be highlighted. I have found a way
to do this for earlier Windows versions but it will not fly with my 64
bit Win7. The articles I find on Microsoft does not seem to help me
much. Any ideas?

Thanks!
