Scott,
Assuming you have Acrobat Reader or another PDF viewer installed and associated with PDF files, you can use:
declare INTEGER ShellExecute in shell32 INTEGER handle, STRING @ oper, ;
STRING @ ifile, STRING @ iparam, STRING @ ipath, INTEGER showcmd
lcFileName = "c:\temp\document0.pdf"
=shellexecute(0,"open",lcFileName,"","c:\",1)

Specifically, I want to open a PDF file in Adobe through my application. Now,
normally, because the computer has Adobe Professional on it, I call the Adobe
COM object and open the file that way.
Is there a way to open a file...any file...by calling Windows and just
providing the filename? Windows would then open the file with the appropriate
program.
This would save me always explicitly always using an application's COM
object to open a file.
