This self-contained routine can be pasted into a code module and called from anywhere, including the immediate window. It will expect you to pass the name of a file (including the path if it isn't in the current directory) and will copy the contents of the file to the immediate window. Note it will also avoid, as far as possible, interfering with any other processing which may be going on at the time.
