I have no clue where to start on this one: Is it possible to have a vb.net application open files in thier native applications (just like double clicking on them). I have a list of files and I want the user to be able to open them just by double clicking on the list

Thank
Brad
 
Hi,

Process.Start("filename") will open the file in its native
application.
