Hi,

You should use the built-in variables:

%IsWin95%
%IsWin98%
%IsWinNT4%
%IsWin2000%
%IsWinME%
%IsWinXP%
These variables have a value of "True" or "False" depending on whether the install is running on the respective operating system.

Or

%OS%
The user’s operating system:
1 = Windows 95
2 = Windows 98
3 = Windows NT 4.0
4 = Windows 2000
5 = Windows ME
6 = Windows XP

These will determine what OS you user's are running, then you can use these variables in Boolean conditions to determine which Acrobat Reading installation you should to run.

mark.
