Opening PDF File in Acrobat Reader

[Robert2150]

I have an Access Database that contains a form with a button to view attached PDF files. I have Acrobat Reader loaded on the computer. When using a computer with XP OS you just double click on the button, and Acrobat Reader opens the PDF for viewing. I return to the database form just by closing Reader. However, on a computer with Windows 7, when I double click on the button to view the PDF the PDF file opens in Reader, but I have to hit Alt+TAB to view the file. Any suggestions?

You are simply losing focus is all. You may have to add code to set focus on the current window. Good Luck!

What is the code behind Double Click?

What version of Access on XP machine?

What version of Access on W7 machine?

Are both machines using the same Access file or do they have their own FE?
