Yes, at least in Acrobat 6 and I assume 5.
Menu: Advanced | Batch Processing. Create a new sequence, Select Commands, scroll to Page, Delete Pages, Add.
In the right pane, expand Delete Pages, it will default to Page 1, but you can click to edit a page range.
You can then specify this sequence to run when prompted, or on a specific folder, etc.

Thanks! That really helps!
Next question...when exactly does it run on the folder?
I have a process preceding this one (In Adobe Capture) that takes all the scanned tifs and converts them to PDFs. This process runs whenever a tif file is added to the folder.
Is there any way to work it like that??
Am I asking a lot??

In the same menu/dialog, you click the name of your sequence and click the "Run Sequence" button.
Keep in mind that my solution runs from within Acrobat.
If you want to fully automate this with a windows program, I suspect you can do this by using Visual Basic to interact with Acrobat.
I haven't too much experience with that, but others here do.

I see that all the Batch Sequence files are stored in a folder under Acrobat>Sequences.
But MY sequence isn't there. There must be a way to reference this sequence so that we can execute it.
Does anyone know in which folder I can find my sequence??
I did a search under the name that I saved it but it didn't come up!
Thanks.

I asked this same question earlier:
On 2000/XPPro, the custom sequences seem to be located in
\Documents and settings\user\Application Data\Adobe\Acrobat\6.0\Sequences
