Paul,

>Anyone use Adobe Acrobat file with your programs?  Can it be done?  

Do you mean can you display the contents of a PDF file within your program?

AFAIK, the answer to that is no.  You can use CHAIN to terminate your program
and start up Acrobat Reader -- if it is installed on the device.  But it would
not return to your program when finished.

It is hard to tell what your intended use is.  However, one possible alternative
would be to use a "doc" format document instead of PDF file, if all you need is
straight text.  You can then display this from within your program by using my
shareware DocReaderLib, available in the Files section of this forum.

The download includes a sample project so you can see how it works.

Doug
