IS there a way to set up OS to launch a PDF report (or book) from a Dashboard button?

I do this with a dashboard button that runs a data management sequence that runs a book using the 'Export File'.  It allows me to also pass parameters to the book as well as email it to the user(s).

Nick, does your Open File Navigation option allow for parameters to be passed to the book?  If so, your option might be more straight forward than mine.
