Thanks Dragan. This solved the problem.



>>Asking for sys(5) + sys(2003) converts backslashes to double forward slashes. And the drive letter is converted to "file:" . Looks like UNC or something but I am not sure what I need to change in order for the path to the file to be correct for IE.

lcFile=fullpath("adobe\"+pdffilename)
