Identifying version of Adobe Reader
Hi,
I have written some code that will open a pdf file using the following code: Shell "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 5.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe " & File_To_Open1, vbNormalFocus This works fine if the user has the same version as me (5.0) but I found that many users in this company have different versions. Can I get the version from the Registry (and if so how)? I also thought about looking at my directories and finding the Adobe folder but thought this is an untidy method.. I got around this by capturing the error if 5.0 couldn't be found which worked until I found a version 6.0 CE. I got around this but putting the following code in: If The_Ver = "6.0" Then The_Ver = "6.0 CE" I don't want to keep having to create these get-arounds. Is there an easier way??? I am also lead to believe you don't need to put the version in but I haven't been able to get to work. Any ideas? -- Andrew |
