Formula to open external file with specific program (like open with)

Thank you very much for your answer. I'll test it as soon as possible and I'll get back to you.

There's no need to link inside the zip file (I think) because the player (KaraFun Player) opens zip files. In cdg+mp3 files format there is a cgd file and a mp3 file, both with the same name, so it's normal and convenient that they are both zipped into one single file. And the player is prepared for this.

By the way, is it possible to do something like this (can't test it at the moment):

Code:

Sub Demo()
Shell "C:\Program Files (x86)\KaraFun Player\KaraFunPlayer.exe" "<my sheet's E column here acording to the song, like E5 for Another Day In Paradise>"
End Sub

And if so, how could I make the column change according to request song?

These are probably very dumb questions since I never tried any macros or vba... I'll try it as soon as possible.

Thank you very much once again!
