>Paul, again thank you. Where can I find out how to drive the Acrobat reader? I ask this because my next question is - Is it possible to print an Acrobat document using just the reader without the document interface ever becoming visible?

Acrobat Reader has an ActiveX control ("Adobe Acrobat Control for ActiveX") that you can use to drive Acrobat Reader. You can drop an instance of this control on a VFP form and call THISFORM.oleAcrobat.LoadFile("myFile.PDF") to view a specific PDF file. Or from a command button on the form you could call THISFORM.oleAcrobat.LoadFile( GETFILE( "PDF")) to bring up an Open File dialog and let the user point to whatever PDF file they want to view.
