Linking to file folder

Featured Replies

Hi guys. I'm trying to find a method of creating a link that takes you to the folder that a file lives in. Essentially a field that becomes a hotlink like on a web page. Clicking on it would take you to the desktop and open the folder for you.

I'm sure there's a way to do it but can't dig it up at the moment.

thanks

What OS? (That's a pretty important piece of information.)

Mac OSX and Windows 2000

Would like to put in a standard link //Computer/Folder/SubFolder/

On Win 2K you can use the open URL script step for this:

Open URL[No Dialog, "C:Documents and SettingsAdministratorDesktopYourFolder"]

Not sure on a mac, obviously it would be a different path.

That works great...Three questions:

1)Is there any way to open a Specific file in a folder?

2)Is there a way to have the link change the path automatically to a new file everytime a new contact is entered?

3)Can a remote person use this also?
