You can often find documentation for specific applications by searching for the app name plus "com object model". To make it more difficult, Adobe has changed their names from version to version. In the old versions, you wanted "AcroExch.PDDoc" Adobe has a great deal of technical documentation on their web site: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/. The detailed COM stuff is in their "Interapplication Communication Reference": http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/acrobat/sdk/IACReference.pdf -- Tim Roberts, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
