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...
