Public g_DI As DocumentInteraction
End Sub

Private Sub Application_Start (Nav As NavigationController)
m_PageReport.Initialize("PageReport")
m_PageReport.Title = "首页"
m_PageReport.RootPanel.Color = g_colorBack
NavControl.ShowPage(m_PageReport)
g_DI.Initialize("di",File.DirDocuments,"111.doc")

Please use [code]code here...[/code] tags when posting code.

Are you sure that the sub is executed? Change your code to:

Sub PageReport_Click
   Log(g_DI.OpenFile(m_PageReport.RootPanel))
End Sub

If it is called and it is not opened then try to pass a BarButton:

Private Sub Application_Start (Nav As NavigationController)
   m_PageReport.Initialize("PageReport")
   m_PageReport.Title = "首页"
   m_PageReport.RootPanel.Color = Colors.White
   Nav.ShowPage(m_PageReport)
   g_DI.Initialize("di",File.DirDocuments,"111.doc")
   g_DI.UTI="com.microsoft.word.doc"
   Dim bb As BarButton
   bb.InitializeText("open", "open")
   m_PageReport.TopRightButtons = Array (bb)
End Sub

Sub PageReport_Click
   Log(g_DI.OpenFile(m_PageReport.TopRightButtons.Get(0)))
End Sub

You can open it in anyway you like. However it needs to be attached to the bar button.
