Why doesn't this work?

Text in V_22300 = "C:\Program\Adobe\Acrobat 8.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe"



Sub Starta_Acrobat1()
Dim RetVal

RetVal = Shell(Range("V_22300").Value, 1)

End Sub

Do you have Acrobat (not just the reader)?

Sure you have the path correct?

I just tried the reader and that worked fine.

Hmmm... well yes I hadn't. Thing is I wrote the code at work. I'm at home now and my Acrobat is 6.0. Sorry and thanks!
