When I select the Preview PDF tab in LCD ES the screen displays that "Navigation to webpage was canceled" and the form is opened in Acrobat 9 Professional Extended instead. It used to diplay in the Preview PDF panel.

Any else experience this and have a solution?

No solution, but my trouble is a little more indepth.

I just started using LCD ES. Originally, I couldn't even get Preview PDF to function (was grayed out in View>). I thought maybe I needed to have Reader installed so, in addition to having 9.0 Pro, I added Reader 9 and left Pro as the default. Voila! Preview appeared, but I get the same message as StevenD, but it says "the Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser. Adobe Acrobat/Reader version 8 or 9 is required. Please exit and try again." Then I get the "this program cannot display the webpage" message.I have 2 9.0 versions installed. What gives?

Hi, I'm not sure what's causing this, but do you both have your forms saved as Dynamic and in File>Form Properties>Defaults - is the Preview Type:, set to Interactive? If so, then I'm barking up the wrong tree, but it's a thought.

Yes it is set to Interactive. That was a good thought.
