如何使用VBA在Excel中打开（实际上打开）文本文件？

Question

I know how to read/write from/to a text file. But those routines don't actually visibly open the text file. I want to be able to open the text file so I can make edits directly (in the Notepad application), rather than through a macro.

To clarify - I am not looking to import the data from the text file into Excel. I just want to open the text file from within Excel - but the actual edit of the text file will be in Notepad.

Have you tried it like this:

Sub OpenTextFile() 

On Error GoTo 1 
ActiveWorkbook.FollowHyperlink "C:\Windows\test.txt", NewWindow:=True 
Exit Sub 
1:       MsgBox Err.Description 

End Sub

PS Sorry, I'm currently on a machine without excel installed, so I can't test it until monday...so please try it
