Start Acrobat reader with a PDF

Hi All,I’ve recently downloaded Adobe acrobat reader 6 and installed it. But I can’t find a way to start it from a Lotus Script.

On this forum I found:

Set acroApp = CreateObject(“AcroExch.App”)

But it doesn’t work.

I’ve looked in the OLE class references, there I found “Acrobat Access 2.0 Type Library” and “Acrobat Control for ActiveX”. None of them have the property AcroExch or Application.

Please help me out!

All you have done is create the object, you then need to show it…

Set acroApp = CreateObject("AcroExch.App")

AcroApp.show

The CreateObject(“AcroExch”) call fails and an error dialogue appears saying:“Cannot create automation object”

So I have nothing to show.
