trouble with PDF's

[kosh01]

Hi,
I'm new I have read all that has been posted about having Acrobat Reader on CD opening pdf's.
The trouble I have is that there is no worked examples only half ones.
I'm using the FILE Execute command
<IR_ACTIONS_LIST>
<Action name="Execute">
<Type>8</Type>
<Function>0</Function>
<DTIndentLevel>0</DTIndentLevel>
<Enabled>1</Enabled>
<ErrorHandling>
<UserNotificationMode>2</UserNotificationMode>
<CustomErrorMessage/>
<OnErrorAction>0</OnErrorAction>
<JumpToLabel/>
</ErrorHandling>
<FileName>%SrcDir%\Acrobat 4.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe</FileName>
<CommandLine>Acrobat 4.0\Reader\my.pdf</CommandLine>
<WorkingDir/>
<RunMode>0</RunMode>
<WaitForReturn>0</WaitForReturn>
</Action>
</IR_ACTIONS_LIST>
but it comes up with can't find path and file.

Help

Try using:

"%SrcDir%\Acrobat 4.0\Reader\my.pdf"

as the command line (with the quotes).

Re: trouble with PDF's

Acrobat Reader has to be installed on the target system (you can check if it is installed, there's an example in the help file I believe.

Don't use the execute but just file open and then the path to my.pdf That will automatically open the file in Acrobat.
