Old code not working in 11.5

Question

For years I used the following code to open a .pdf file with a stand alone .pdf reader that does not require installation.
open "resume.pdf" with "Foxit Reader.exe"
When I converted the old director file from MX to 11.5 and tried to execute the code I received the following message in a dialog box:
Usage:
FoxitReader [-Register] [-NoRegister] [PDF filename] [-n ,Page Number>] {ImportFDF <FDF filename>]
-n <Page Number> Specify most recently read page number.
-Import FDF <FDF filename> Import the form data from the specified FDF file
-Register Set Foxit Reader as default reader.
-NoRegister Open Foxit Reader but won't set it as default reader.
What is all this? I have used this same code since Director 8.0 with no issues. Can anyone explain this to me and how to fix it?
Thanks.

Answer 1

Are you sure that's the same code? Lingo's 'open' typically has problems with spaces in file/directory names. How about if you try this version?
open QUOTE &"resume.pdf" &QUOTE with QUOTE &"Foxit Reader.exe" &QUOTE
