Denis:  Have you tried issuing an execution command based on a specific folder path to AcroRd32.exe on the CD?  When we autorun our CD's, the Reader 5.0 version on the disk runs, not the Reader (6.0) version on the hard drive.
This is exactly my experience under W2K. Our product works exactly as it should... autoloads... and opens the first screen under the CD version Reader preferences.

But with W98  if there is an install of Reader on the User's HD, that is what runs. Could this be the case for your users as well?

Enquiries continue.

Is it really true that... Acrobat Reader... set to autorun from a CD
will always find and use a HD instal of Reader, if it exists? Because
this is what I find.

Like... AcroRd32.exe appears to have some kind of search function that
defaults to the HD version...which is then likely to put up a splash
screen.... a prompt to configure the user's browser... have no smoothing
set ... and a mouse cursor that disappears after a couple of seconds
etc.etc.

Is there a  way of ensuring that a CD version of Reader with the
appropriate preferences set is the one used  rather than a HD version?
Or is this just a 'serious limitation' of Acrobat Reader that I have to
live with?

[Reader V5.0.5.452/PC]
