Calling Acrobat from Word.

Hi all.
I'm running Word 2000 on Win2K on a small network with Win2K server on the
server.
On a user form I have a list box that pulls up a list of documents in a
specific directory. Double clicking opens and or manipulates the selected
file based on the code written in the double click event - I have managed
this for Word and Excel files without problems.
I would also like .pdf files listed in this directory to open, but I'm
stumped as to the phrasing.
I've tried:
Set var = GetObject(FullPath&NameOfFile,) but nothing happens (ie just goes
to the next line, no error, no nothing),
then tried on the next line
var.activate - but this triggered an error.
and
Set var = GetObject(FullPath,AcroRd32.?) (the help file suggests that a
value should follow the file name, but I can't find documenation as to what
this should be for Acrobat) - this triggers an error.
The machine on which I'm writing has acrobat 7.01. The machines on which
it will be used have a variety of older versions at present.
(just read the thread on acrobat 7 - makes me nervous about upgrading on my
office machines! - does it apply to the reader only version also?)
Many thanks to anyone who can help.
Regards,
Brett
