Linking Local Files to Task Manager Instructions

Summary

URL Reference to local file on Instructions Tab

Content

Is is possible to use the URL link to reference a local directory file?  The Oracle Docs show an example of using the URL to reference a web location, which DOES work fine for me.  When I try to reference a local file directly, it does not launch anything.  I also prefixed file:/// to the beginning of the file patch location.  If I embed the exact same link into an Excel file, it launches the external Word file with no problem.

Wondering if anyone has experience with this issue and can point out what I might be missing.  Thanks.
