Let MATLAB open .txt Files in Microsoft Editor

Hello everyone,

simple question i guess, but can't find a reasonable solution on the internet after some research. I want Matlab to open a written txt.file with the Microsoft Editor after clicking the correlating menu item

Any ideas, what my Callback should look like, if I dont't want the text openend in Matlab? Pretty sure there has to be an implemented function, shouldn't be that unusual task.

[I created a help file as a manual for my GUI which is about 3 pages long and Matlab doesnt want me to open it in an msgbox because of too many input arguments, so i decided to use the text file option.]

thanks in advance
