    Hyperlink with command line arguments

    I was wondering if anyone new of a way to add command line arguments to a hyperlink? I would like to call an application and pass a value to it. Like, C:\test.exe fileName.
    I can load the application without the argument, but when it is added to the link, an error message is displayed with "can not open specified file."

    I would prefer not to add any VBA code to the word files to avoid issues with macros being disabled.

    Any other ideas of how to do this would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Give us an example of a hyperlink that accepts parameters?

    You can call an exe with parameters, but not links
