Opening a file within Visual.NET IDE as a Post-Build Event?

After my Build, a file gets generated "a.txt". I want to open "a.txt" as a
Post-Build Event on Visual.NET window (like doing a File>Open>File). I know
I can launch wordpad or notepad as a Post-Build Event, but I want it opened
within Visual.NET.

Anyone have any ideas?

Visual Basic? .NET. It provides pre- and post-build rules at the solution
and project levels for projects that implement the common Visual Studio
automation model.
