Hello Razzak!

Thanks for the /p /h switches for Acrobat Reader. Now, if we could close
Acrobat after the print job - is there syntax to do this within R:base -
kinda like an 'un-launch' command?

Regards,
Brad Davidson

Daniele,

Try the following example:

CLEAR VAR vPDFFileName,vQuotes,vPrintString,vQuotes
SET VAR vPDFFileName TEXT = 'MyFile.PDF'
SET VAR vQuotes TEXT = (CVAL('QUOTES'))
SET VAR vPrintString TEXT = NULL

SET VAR vPrintString = +
(.vQuotes+'C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 5.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe|/p /h'
+
  &.vPDFFilename+.vQuotes)

  -- If using Adobe Acrobat 6.0, change the directory to 6.0 in the
string 
above

LAUNCH &vPrintString

CLEAR VAR vPDFFileName,vMsg,vPrintYesNo,vPrintString,vQuotes
RETURN

Enjoy and make sure to have fun!

Very Best R:egards,

Razzak.
