I have Acrobat and Reader 6 installed (with all updates). I have Reader
7.0.9 installed. I have set up preferences so that Reader 7 is the program
of choice for IE 7 and Windows explorer. Both get me to Reader 7 as
expected.

However, I have an application that points to a pdf file in its Help menu.
Whenever I click on help, I get Acrobat 6 rather than Reader 7 (unless
Reader 7 is already running in which case I get Reader 7). If any of the
Adobe products are already running, clicking the app Help starts the pdf in
the one running.

What do I need to change in a Windows 2003 system for the Help menu item to
use Reader 7 as default when clicking on the app Help button?

Thanks.
