We were using Acrobat Reader 5.0 for years now, but now have decided to upgrade to reader 8.0. Well I created a program that uses MS Access as the front end, and SQL server as the back end. I created an Adobe Acrobat Control for ActiveX in a form, and then made a reference to pdf.ocx, and used the following code to open the PDF file within MS Access...
[code]
Dim pdfImage As PdfLib.Pdf, strPath As String
Set pdfImage = Me.Pdf2.Object
strPath = "N:\electronic_medical_records\ECO pdfs\" & Me.txtPDFName
pdfImage.LoadFile strPath
[/code]

So after downloading reader 8.0, I noticed there is no pdf.ocx to reference. So I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction on how to open PDF files within MS Access using reader 8.0.

Thanks,

Kristen
