That should be geniuses or genii ;-)

If you put the path and file name of the spreadsheet into a table field with a datatype Hyperlink, when you doubleclick on the field with the table in datasheet view, you will open the spreadsheet in it's native Excel application - is this what you want?

I would like them to just see the specific WORKSHEET (in my document example that would be 341) within the spreadsheet that is named the same as the plant number.  I think that your suggestion would open the whole spreadsheet and then they'd need to find the correct worksheet. - there will be possibly hundreds of the little suckers.

Don't know if my last comment has been saved, but your second option was a perfect solution.  Thanks so much.
No problem.
