Hi,

this can be done with JavaScript.
Add this script to the click:event of a button.
It looks for the present attachments and if one has the name "TEST.pdf" it will be opened.

 var oDoc = event.target;
 var oAttachment = oDoc.dataObjects;  
 var oAttachmentName;      
 
 if (oAttachment != null) 
  {
  for (var i = 0; i < oAttachment.length; i++)
   {
   oAttachmentName = oAttachment[i].path;
   if (oAttachmentName == "TEST.pdf") 
    {
    app.openDoc(oAttachmentName, this);
    }
   }
  }
