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

Excel Facts

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
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.
