Hi everyone,
I'm sorry I couldn't make the subject more descriptive. Baisicaly I have a PDF file which links to another .PDF file. I want the new PDF to open in a new window, as in open the reader again so that you can view both on the bar at the bottom of the windows screen. I have tried linking to a .bat file which opens the second .PDF but this only works on Windows XP, not on 2000 or NT. could this be due to some kind of security settings either in Acrobat or windows? thanks a lot for any help or Ideas you can give me on this.

OK, I have found the little check box in the preferences that says to open links in new window and this works. However this is dependant on the clients machine setup. is there anyway to automate this process? thanks.
