    Open PDF file knowing it's directory and only part of the unique file name.

    Hi folks,

    I'm looking for assistance with Excel. Looking for a method that will open PDF file knowing it's directory and only part of the unique file name. I'm hoping there's some sort of wildcard reference that can assist in doing what I need.

    The data for the file name will be located in cell D4 and the data will contain "Q184645"

    Located in the directory "C:\TESTQUOTES" is the file with the full name "Q184645_07_09_15_23-100622709.pdf"
