Sep 26, 2007 #1 brian32 Vendor Mar 20, 2005 35 0 0 US Hi. Is there a way to change the preferences in Adobe Reader 7 or 8 using VBscript? Specifically, I want to go to Edit > Preferences > Internet > and UNcheck 'Display PDF in browser' Any weblinks or snippets of code (even incomplete) will be helpful. Thanks.

[Use regmon.] The key your looking for is [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\8.0\Originals] "bBrowserIntegration"=dword:00000000 so create WshShell.RegWrite "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\8.0\Originals\bBrowserIntegration", 0, "REG_DWORD Upvote 0 Downvote

Sep 27, 2007 Thread starter #5 brian32 Vendor Mar 20, 2005 35 0 0 US GrimR is right. But I'm looking for how to change the settings AFTER the initial install. I've tried the tips here, but they did not work: http://support.adobe.com/devsup/devsup.nsf/docs/51722.htmhttp://support.adobe.com/devsup/devsup.nsf/docs/53556.htm Looks like it may be more than just a registry tweak because some Adobe dlls are invoked in IE. Any other suggestions? Thanks. Upvote 0 Downvote
