    Thank you so much Marsha for your response. But this won't solve my problem here since I am trying to double click on executable file in some specific folder using automation code and the link given was to open a file from some windows applications like Notepad(File-->Open-->Choose file from folder). Kindly suggest if you have any idea about this.
