[Qgis-user] Help/advise in using Action functionality

[Bernhard Ströbl]

Hi Ludwig,

this Python action opens a pdf:

import os;os.startfile('[% "field_containing_path_to_file" %]')

tested on Win7 64 bit, QGIS 2.6.1
should open any document with its default application

save the pathes in field_containing_path_to_file with forward slashes /!

Bernhard
