Well here's the deal... If you have one machine where it works & a bunch
that don't you need to figure out WHY it works on the one machine. Does it
always work in authoring? Does it work on your development machine? You may
need to install your development system on some of these machines, including
the one where it works, and trace thru the code in the debugger. Have you
done that? Possibly try typing in the "open xxx with yyy" code in the
message window & see what that does.
One thought - does the machine where it works have Acrobat installed on it?
It sounds as if you have your work cut out for you.
Of course you could also get one of the Xtras like MasterApp that have
functions that are designed to do this for you.
Good luck,
