I am trying to find either an add-in or code to automatically put a file
explorer inside an Access form.  I would like to browse thru a database
table that contains a list of directories and the file explorer displays the 
contents
(files and folders) in a form window.  Other things I would like to do
inside of the file explorer is double click word docs to open or move thru
the directories inside of the file explorer.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance,
Mike

Take a look at http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0001.htm at "The Access 
Web".

Note that that will simply return the full path to the Word documents. 
You'll need to open them yourself, using FollowHyperlink.
