Hmm, the last mail didn't semm to get through.
so let's try again.
-----

OK, I did some tests in the message window based on the info in this doc:
http://partners.adobe.com/asn/acrobat/sdk/public/docs/PDFOpenParams.pdf


baFindApp("pdf") gves the path to the full Acrobat on my system so I hardcoded the 
path to Reader instead:

<Message window test>

theApp = baShortFileName("D:\Program\Adobe\Acrobat 6.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe")

theDoc = baShortFileName("C:\Documents and Settings\Bertil 
Flink\Desktop\PDFOpenParams.pdf")

theArgs = " /A page=5 "

open theApp & theArgs & theDoc

</Message window test>

This worked just fine and opened the pdf file on page 5.

Look Michael what you had me do!
This day wasn't a total waste after all...
