Mike,
In order to do this you need two things. First, Acrobat REader v4.0. 3.x
will not work. Second you need the Acrobat SDK which you can get on Adobe's
web site. It has some good data on controlling Acrobat using OLE.
I have not done this Access, but I have in Visual Basic and it should work
similarly. This should set you in the right direction.
