Problem opening PDF from Microsoft Access form

Hello all.

I had no problems with this until my recent upgrade to Acrobat Pro 8.0.

I am using MS Access 2000, and I have a form that used macros to access two PDF forms that I need to complete with information from the database. I was not trying to fill the form directly from the database, but just typing in the needed information.

All I need is to open the forms. The RunApp command worked perfectly with Acrobat Pro 7, but with version 8, I get the message "There was an error opening this document. File can not be found."

What has changed in the new version, and is there any way around this problem?

Thanks.

Did you try using the shell method in vba?
