Evelyne Posts: 28 Rating: (0)	Hello, Is it possible to open a (not archieved) S7-300 project directly from windows explorer? I would like to make a excel sheet with an yperlink toeach PLC-project in the factory. So if the maintenance clicks on the hyperlink, the S7 project is directly openend. The raison for this: each PLC has a unique number for engineering. The maintenance has difficulties to find the right PLC... Thanks, Evelyne

Evelyne Posts: 28 Rating: (0)	Correct, but this link only starts only the Manager. I would like to open directly a project. Normally you do this via the Manager (File/open/browse project/....)
