Thanks, Mark -

I found a detailed example of how to do it with 5, and did this:

1. Copied all of the files in my Acrobat Reader folder to a CD.
2. Wrote the following into an autorun.inf file:

[autorun]
open=Reader8\Reader\AcroRd32.exe Myfiles\Package2.pdf
defaulticon=Reader8\Reader\AcroRd32.exe,1

And it worked on the first PC I tried it on.

Now I need to try it on a PC w/o Windows SP2...and see where and how Acro 8 it fails...and figure out how to get the autorun file to use Acro 7 if the user does not have SP2...

It never ends...
