I used a Adobe Acrobat Control activeX in an aspx form. There is an Email button on the top of the viewer. But when I clicked on it, it first asked me if I want to send email by attaching the pdf file or as a link. I selected "send as a copy (attachment)", it then open the Outlook with an URL on the subject line and no attached file at all. How can I make this function work?
I guess the version of the activeX is 6. If this is the reason, how can I get ActiveX 7 and up?

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 6.0.2, Windows

Does anyone have an answer on this?
The document quoted in the reply to this thread does not expand on anything and provides no resolution.

I have a VB.Net project which successfully integrates the activex control into a windows form. The user is presented with a number of toolbar buttons one of which is the option to email the PDF. When clicked the email client (outlook) is fired with the document path in the subject line and not as an attachment (my scenario differs from the original poster - I don't get a dialog asking which).

I am using version 7.0 of the activeX control on WinXP. (The 7.05 SDK download doesn't provide a toolbox (.tlb) reference and the link for the 8.1 SDK doesnt provide a full SDK download - just the samples and documentation).

I'd appreciate any help.

Many thanks,
gaj.

And I also have a variation on that problem. Using Acrobat Pro 7 - when the email form button is pressed, it asks what you want to do, but when it sends the file, the filename is always viewPDF.aspx and no one can open it. Any suggestions?
