How about this for your question, Idris? Pure DOS batch file stuff. I tested it with notepad instead of Acrobat, but I assume it should be close to working as shown here. @ echo off IF "%1"=="" GOTO NOARG for /R C:\context %%n IN (.) DO IF EXIST %%n\%1 ( Echo Found %%n\%1 start Acrobat.lnk %%n\%1 GOTO END ) :NOTFOUND echo Couldn't find %1 GOTO END :NOARG echo Specify a file name to find :END
