Error opening tif file with Hyperlink

I need to open some files from Navision
I use the HYPERLINK statement as follows:
HYPERLINK('file://C:/mygiffile.gif');
No problem with pdf, gif, jpeg and others.
But when I try with tif files, as follows:
HYPERLINK('file://C:/mytiffile.tif');
I get the error:
"C/SIDE hyperlinking failed.
You tried to hyperlink to this target:
[url=file://C:/mytiffile.tif]file://C:/mytiffile.tif[/url]
Do you want to place the hyperlink target on the clipboard?"
I also need to open ".dwg" (autocad) files with a autocad viewer.
Thanks in advance.

Is the extension correctly registered in Windows?
MS Office Imaging is commig up on my machine if I try to open .TIF with hyperlink.0 -
Yes, it is.
If I type "file://C:/mytiffile.tif" in my browser address bar it opens correclty.

Ok, I got the message you have described, if the path is misspeled. Check the path0

I checked the path. It is ok (I did cut&paste).

I searched the forum but I experience different behavior than

The same statement gets me the error reported before.
I will go on searching the forum, anyway.
Thanks

I suggest to use Automation instead of function HYPERLINK()
ShellExt Automation 'Microsoft Shell Controls And Automation'.Shell
and then enough to write few lines of code
CREATE(ShellExt);
ShellExt.Open("File Name");
CLEAR(ShellExt);G.Andrius0 -
Great solution!
Thank you, Gandrius
