I am looking for a way to access the methods for Adobe Reader that is running in the WebBrowser ActiveX. Sendkey works to accomplish many tasks but is unreliable. If I was using pdf.ocx (Adobe Reader Version 4, 5 or 6) I can use methods such as pdf1.printpages(2, 3) to print pages 2 and 3 directly or pdf1.gotofirstpage to goto the first page of the pdf. However Adobe Reader version 7 does not include pdf.ocx so I am having to change to the WebBrowser to make the application function regardless of the version of Reader used. What can I do to expose the methods? The pdf displays properly but I can not control it.

Thanks
