Question : Need to Open OLE Embedded object in Access via VBA

Hi All,

I have a table with EMBEDDED OLE objects in it.  (These objects are case-specific 'attachments' that i want to store in my case tracker database, rather than clogging up my desktop:  word, excel, text, etc..).  I can easily enough open the files, by double clicking directly in the table.  I'm trying to complete that same action however via VBA.  I can't imagine that this is taht hard, but i can't figure it out.  Please help.
