I'd say strDestination is a string. This string should have the path to the file you want to open. Remember Vista uses diferent paths than XP, and sometimes you have to be administrator in order to open a file located in the root directory of C.

Move the file to "My documents", or to "shared documents", then you shouldnt have any permission issue.
