Adobe Acrobat Automation

[sglab]

Hello everyone,

Does anyone know how to work with Adobe Acrobat using VB? Please advise on where to get the info, or better yet provide a simple code snippet so I could get the idea.

Thank you in advance.

I'm not sure exactly what you want to do, but you could check out the acrobat developer forum on Adobe's website:

Thank you guys for the replies. I'll check the links you posted. The reason I asked about it was that I need to create an application, that will print LotusNotes e-mails with attachments. I don't have problems printing .doc, .xls,.ppt and other files, but I can't find any information on how to create Acrobat Application from VB. What I mean is I don't know its ProgID in order to initialize it as in:

Dim acroapp as Acrobat.CAcroApp

set acroapp = CreateObject("?.?&quot

and so on.

So, if could give me a tip on what I should substitute those question marks with, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks again.

Declare the variable as you have and then when you create the object use
Set acroapp = CreateObject("AcroExch.App&quot.

That should work.
