There are several possibilities. You could use actions with launch a document or hyperlinks in a table or a macro like this:

Sub openPDF

Dim objWscript, path, file, pdf

set objWscript = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
path = "D:\Path\"
pdf = """C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe"""

Set file = ActiveDocument.Fields("PDF-Files").GetPossibleValues
file = file.Item(0).Text

objWscript.Run(pdf & """" & path & file & """")

End Sub


In all cases you need a complete path to the documents - manually or perhaps per a loop (see F1) like this:

subListeGenerieren (Basis)

foreach Erweiterung in 'qvw', 'qva', 'qvo', 'qvs'

foreach Datei in filelist (Basis&' \*.' &Erweiterung)

LOAD '$(Datei)' AS Name, FileSize( '$(Datei)' ) AS

Größe, FileTime( '$(Datei)' ) AS DateiZeit

AUTOGENERATE 1;

next Datei

next Erweiterung

foreach Verzeichnis in dirlist (Basis&' \*' )

callListeGenerieren (Verzeichnis)

next Verzeichnis

endsub

callListeGenerieren ('C:')
