Here is how I do it:
Function ssiRun
   Lparameters lcProgramToRun, luWindow
   * this is a better way to run an external program than ! or RUN /N etc
   If Type("luWindow") = "L"
      luWindow = 1
   Endif
  Local loshell

   loshell = Createobject("WScript.Shell")
   loshell.Run(lcProgramToRun,luWindow,.T.)
Endfunc

This doesn't work using a pdf (no error returned, just doesn't do anything),
but does with a jpg file, is it possible with a pdf?

***commandbutton.click

mcheck = alltrim(checks.pathname) + ALLTRIM(checks.filename) + ".pdf"

declare long ShellExecute in "shell32.dll" ;
long hwnd, ;
string lpszOp, ;
string lpszFile, ;
string lpszParams, ;
string lpszDir, ;
long nShowCmd
ShellExecute(0,'Open',(mcheck),'','',0)
