Trying to open a PDF file that's coming from a Hyperlink.

My feeble attempt at a string. Any ideas?

Sub openPDF()
ThisWorkbook.FollowHyperlink "G:\Elbe\Elbe Tools\Selectors\Elbe\Elbe USA Selector.xlsm"
End Sub

Ambidextrous Undo
Undo last command with Ctrl+Z or Alt+Backspace. If you use the Undo icon in the QAT, open the drop-down arrow to undo up to 100 steps.
Note this has been cross-posted here. What was wrong with that code?
You can use your code but it obviously won't open a PDF file.
