[RBASE-L] - Re: LAUNCH command

[KarenTellef]

MikeB & Troy:

Well, no matter which option I try, neither works here on 6.5++, build 1.866.

This client is still on double quotes, so I changed it to single to test this.

Mike's suggestion of (I put a space between the quotes here just so it is
clearer for everyone to see, didn't test it that way):
LAUNCH ' "C:\ProgramFiles\Adobe\Acrobat4\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe"|"/p /h C:\Temp\IllJoe.Pdf" '

had to be changed for my program:
LAUNCH ' "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 5.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe"|"/p /h C:\504209-1.Pdf" '

I changed the Launch to a DIR, stripped out everything after .exe, and it does find my program.
Also the pdf file.  I don't get any error messages, but nothing goes to the printer either.


Troy's suggestion is:
Zip command /c  'C:\ProgramFiles\Adobe\Acrobat5.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe|/p /h C:\Cust.pdf'

This is the same directory structure as mine, although I have a space between Acrobat 5.0
so I changed that; also changed the pdf file at the end.  Since I'm on XP, I replaced Command
with CMD.  It goes out to DOS but quickly comes back with no error message, but no printing.  
Tried all combos of CMD, CMD.EXE, COMMAND, COMMAND.COM, without /c....

Is there something I need to do on the Acrobat side to allow this printing?
