I also went to Tools>File Type on the Windows Explorer and reset the file association Tools>with similar results. I believe that I have tried all the "usual suspects" with no luck.

Look for "Open With" > Choose Program. Click Choose Program. If you have Adobe Reader or some PDF read, it should be listed. Click it once to highlight it and, on the bottom, you'll likely see "Always use this program to open the selected file." Make sure the check box is checked. Click OK to apply. Try it now.

In an application I open a PDF file via the Launch command. LAUNCH &vDocFile Where vDocFile has the path and name for the file. This works on every computer except in one where the user gets the following error: "There is no application associated with the given filename extension." I have looked at the file type association and it correctly list Acrobat Reader. I can double click on the file on the Windows Explorer and it opens the file correctly I go to the command prompt and type: Assoc.pdf I get: .pdf=AcroExch.Document Which is the same thing I get on the other working computers. I created a quick test.bat batch file with the command: START AcroRd32.exe "testscan123.pdf" And when I run the batch file (double click on the Windows Explorer) it opens the PDF file correctly. I have uninstalled Acrobat and re-installed the latest version and I still get the same error. I have a simulated c> prompt in the compiled application where I can enter a command and it will execute it. I tried entering: LAUNCH test.pdf And I get the same error message I tried launching a different file type to verify the simulated c> prompt: LAUNCH test.xls And the Excel file open correctly I also tried launching the batch file: LAUNCH test.bat And it works correctly I have added a copy of the PDFViewerControl form (from the RRBYW17 sample) and it open the file correctly. As I indicated above, this happens in only 1 computer (Windows XP) that is configured the same way as the other computers that work. This is driving me crazy; any help will be greatly appreciated.
