i hava a VB application that is used to run different application by

using ShellExecute. These applications also includes Adode reader to

open .pdf files. The application is working fine with Adode reader 7

till now but after the installation of Adobe reader 8 the
ShellExecute

gives an error such that "No file found".

Can any one help me in this regard i.e. is there a problem with
ShellExecute or Adobe reader 8 ?

Do PDFs open fine when you just double click on them?
What verb are you passing to ShellExecute and what is the default (bold)
action when you right click a PDF?
