Problems with visual basic and acrobat X

Hello,
In visual basic (excel), I had written a program in visual basic (excel) to open a pdf file on the local server.
Before I updated to acrobat pro X, I had acrobat pro 8 on my pc.
With the 8 I didn't had any problems to open the pdf-file.
Now with the X version, it only opens the start window of acrobat x pro.
Did they changed something in Xversion?
Does anyone has an idea to solve this problem?
Below you can find my visual basic code.
Thanks in advanced !!
Sylvie
Code:
Sub OpenPDF(bestand As String)
Dim retval
Dim sAdobeReader As String
sAdobeReader = Chr(34) & "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe" & Chr(34)
'sAdobeReader = "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe"
retval = Shell(sAdobeReader & Chr(34) & bestand & Chr(34), 0)
End Sub
Private Sub SelectedPDF()
OpenPDF ("N:\11276.pdf")
End Sub

This is really a user forum, I think you need a developer forum... maybe SDK?

    Didn't we hear this from you yesterday? Sounds too familiar. If so, we told you you're using a MICROSOFT product (Visual J++), which is OLD, and not up to the SUN's java specification. We suggested that you dump Visual J++ and go with something like JBuilder, Forte, Visual Cafe, etc.
    This is a SUN site in support of SUN's java - not Microsoft's outdated and non-existent (anymore) version.

  • Need help with Visual BASIC

    I am in an intro to programming course, and I am writing a console on Visual Basic 2013.  My problem with Visual Basic right now is that I cannot get the formula to work.  All of my inputted values end up being 0's.  Am I using incorrect parameters,
    am I misunderstanding how to use arguments; am I not coding correctly?  The scenario for my problem is:
          Areas of Rectangles: The area of a rectangle is the rectangle’s length times its width.  Design a program that asks for the length and width of two rectangles. The program should tell the user which rectangle has the
    greater area, or if the areas are the same.
    //My code is 
    Module Module1
        Sub Main()
            Dim LENGTH As Double = 0
            Dim WIDTH As double = 0

    Hi,
      If you are just beginning to program i highly recommend setting the following options in the Visual Studio menu (Tools/Options). Open the Options window and go to the (Projects and Solutions) and click on (VB Defaults). Now set the options as follows.
    Option Strict - On
    Option Explicit - On
    Option Infer - Off
     And probably one of the most important things to do is learning to Debug your code. That will save you hours of headaches when you get unexpected results in your applications. You will know how to track it down and find where in the code your results
    are being thrown off. There are quite a few Debugging tutorials on the internet. Here are a few decent ones.

  • Strange axbridge issue with Visual Basic

    I started having a very strange problem with my axbridge wrapped bean around the time I switched to JDK 1.5. Problem is, I can't seem to get rid of it by rolling back to earlier versions.
    Here's what happens: I create a very simple non-visual bean:
    package pack;
    public class Bean1 {
    public Bean1()
    System.out.println("Constructor");
    public boolean someMethod ()
    System.out.println("1");
    return false;
    I then create Bean1.dll using the packager.exe provided with the JDK, and register it as part of the packaging process.
    Then, I go into Visual Basic 6 and enter this code:
    Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Dim xx As Object
    xx = CreateObject("Bean1.Bean.1")
    End Sub
    On the CreateObject call, Visual Basic gives me the error "Object variable or With block variable not set", which isn't helpful.
    In the Java console with level 5 tracing turned on, I see this:
    basic: Referencing classloader: sun.plugin.ClassLoaderInfo@17ba38f, refcount=1

    The only thing I've found in the bug database that seems even remotely related to this is bug 6391104, which is related to plugins somehow.
    I do not understand why applets are involved in this at all.
    When I try to instantiate the COM object from a C++ program, everything works fine. My problem only seems to occur with Visual Basic (version 6, not .NET).
    This problem seems so fundamental that it seems impossible that no one else has run into it, but there 's nothing about it on any forum or buglist that I've seen. So, I figured there must be something very obscure wrong with my setup. However, I tried installing this on a brand new machine using my trivial case, and I still have the problem. I'm really at my wits' end. Anyone have any ideas?

    You definately want to go to CR 2008. I'd recommed that you call 866-681-3435 and ask about the possibility of getting a 30 day eval.

  • Problem with the MenuBar and how can i delete a own component out of the storage

    Hello,
    I opened this thread in the category "Flex Builder 2", but
    under this category my questions fit better.
    I have a problem with the MenuBar and a question to delete a
    component out of storage.
    1. We have implemented the MenuBar, which was filled
    dynamically with XML data.
    Sporadically it will appear following fault, if we "mousover"
    the root layer.
    RangeError: Error #2006: Der angegebene Index liegt
    außerhalb des zulässigen Bereichs.
    at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/addChildAt()
    at mx.managers::SystemManager/
    http://www.adobe.com/2006/flex/mx/internal::rawChildren_addChildAt()
    at mx.managers::SystemManager/addChild()
    at mx.managers::PopUpManager$/addPopUp()
    at mx.controls::Menu/show()
    at mx.controls::MenuBar/::showMenu()
    at mx.controls::MenuBar/::mouseOverHandler()
    Here a abrid ged version of our XML to create the MenuBar:
    <Menuebar>
    <menu label="Artikel">
    <menu label="Artikel anlegen" data="new_article" />
    <menu label="Artikel bearbeiten" data="edit_article" />
    <menu label="Verpackung">
    <menu label="Verpackung anlegen" data="new_package" />
    <menu label="Verpackung bearbeiten" data="edit_package"
    />
    </menu>
    <menu label="Materialgruppe">
    <menu label="Materialgruppe anlegen"
    data="new_materialgroup" />
    <menu label="Materialgruppe bearbeiten"
    data="edit_materialgroup" />
    </menu>
    </menu>
    </Menuebar>
    It is a well-formed XML.
    2. Delete a component out of storage
    We have some own components (basically forms), which will be
    created and shown by an construct e.g.
    var myComponent : T_Component = new T_Component ;
    this.addChild(myComponent)
    Some of our forms will be created in an popup. On every call
    of the popup, we lost 5 mb or more, all childs on the windows will
    be removed by formname.removeAllChild();
    What cann we do, that the garbage collector will dispose this
    objects.
    Is there a way to show all objects with references (NOT
    NULL)?
    I have read in the Flex Help, that
    this.removeChild(myComponent) not delete the form and/or object out
    of the storage.
    Rather the object must be destroyed.
    It is sufficient to call delete(myComponent) about remove
    this object out of the storage as the case may be that the
    garbage-collector remove this object at any time?
    Or how can I destroy a component correctly. What happens with
    the widgets on this component e.g. input fields or datagrids?
    Are they also being deleted?
    Thanks for your help.
    Matze

    If you mena the "photo Library" then you cannot delete it.
    This is how iphone handles photos.  There are not two copies.  There a re simply two places from which to access the same photos.  ALL photos synced to iphone can be accessed via Photo Library.  Those same pics can be accessed via their individual folder.

  • Problems with captivate 8 and windows 8

    I´m using captivate 8 and windows 8, and I am having problems with the visualization and publication of my projects. For visualization, there is a message of an error with syntax of the files ou directory, and nothing happens. For publication, I can´t see the project published in the browser. It opens only a text file, with the codes. Is there anyone thar can help me with that?

    Acrobat 8 is not certified for Win7, particularly the x64 version. If you got the installation to go, the first step is to update AA8 to at least AA8.2. The x64 with XP required at least AA8.2 and I suspect that has not changed. I would suggest updating to the latest, either from the help menu (until no more updates are available) or by downloading the updates from the adobe.com>downloads page. For the latter, download ALL updates after your current version and install them in ORDER. They are not cummulative in most cases. You only need to reboot after the final update. The updates may get you going. If not, you may simply have to upgrade to AA9 or search for what others have been able to do in your situation.

  • Problem with Nokia Camera and Smart Sequence

    Hi,
    I'm having a problem with Nokia Camera and the Smart Sequence mode.
    Basically, if you take a picture using nokia camera, and view it in your camera roll, it usually says, underneath the pic "open in nokia camera".
    Well, if I take a pic using the Smart Sequence mode, it just doesn't say "open in nokia camera" so, to use the functions of smart sequence (best shot, motion focus, etc), I have to open nokia camera, go to settings and tap the "Find photos and videos shot with nokia camera" option.
    Does anyone has the same problem? Anybody solved it?
    I already tried reinstalling nokia camera, but that didn't help.
    I'm running Nokia Black on my 925.
    Thanks everyone!

    Hi,
    I had the same problem with my 1020. It did get fixed with the last update to Nokia camera.
    However, IIRC, it didn't just happen right away. When browsing the camera roll I'm pretty sure that the "open with Nokia camera" text wasn't there.
    Slightly disappointed I opened the (Nokia) camera anyway and was going to test the smart sequence again. I noticed the only precious pic I'd taken using this actually appeared top left of the screen.
    I opened it and I had all the smart sequence editing options again - that we're missing previous. Made a new picture and saved it.
    Now when in camera roll the text shows below the image and all is good.
    This probably doesn't help much except that it didn't seem to fix automatically.
    I work @Nokia so I can ask around a bit to see if this is a known / common issue (not that I know any developers)

  • Can you tell me how to measure audio signal frequency in measurement studio with visual basic 6.0?

    I'd like to measure two differential input signal(I.e. A+ and A-),below is two test projects,
    1.connect A+/A- to PCI 6052E card's ACH0/ACH8 ,and refer to GND for testing
    2.connect respectively A+/A- to PCI 6052E card's ACH0/ACH8 for testing
    Could you tell me the details of the second project?and give me a illustration in measurement studio with visual basic 6. 0 about the second?
    In addition,I would like to measure the audio signal frequency,could you give me a illustration in measurement studio with visual basic 6.0?
    Wait for your reply!

    Dear kelven,
    Thank you for contacting National Instruments.
    To address your question, there are Analog Input shipping examples that demonstrate how to measure an analog input differentially, as you specify in (2).
    As for measuring the audio signal frequency, you may want to check out the following KnowledgeBase. The link is:
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/4b08380530d72d3b86256340004c3005
    Let me know if you have any further questions or if this does not resolve your issue.
    Thanks again and have a great day!

  • Error: There is a problem with the file and it cannot be copied

    I've been trying to copy (and essentially move) the contents of an NTFS-formatted external HDD to my iMac's internal HDD so I can then format the external HDD to Mac OS Extended. However, when I simply try to drag and drop, I get an error during the transfer that states:
    There is a problem with the file and it cannot be copied.
    I tried a basic cp command in Terminal to copy all contents of the external HDD to a folder on my iMac's desktop, and found that while there were no errors, there were many individual files missing full chunks of data (ie. original file would be 4GB on my external HDD, but only 350MB on my desktop).
    Any ideas on how I can successfully copy a large amount of data (approx. 170GB) from my external HDD to my internal HDD while avoiding this error, so I can ultimately format my external HDD to Mac OS Extended? ANY help is greatly appreciated.

    That's not a good error to see. It indicates something is very wrong. Pulled out of an old programming header file:
    ioErr = -36, /*I/O error (bummers)*/
    If Apple labelled it "bummers," they had a good reason! Unfortunately, that doesn't bode well for you.
    Try running Disk Utility again. Keep repairing over and over until one of two things happens: 1) Disk Utility says no repair was needed, or 2) Disk Utility reports the same error in two sequential repair sessions and is unable to repair it both times.
    If you hit the second case, or if you hit the first but still can't copy files, then you've got two basic options:
    = Buy a third-party disk utility or two and try them. Try TechTool as a first choice.
    = Recover what files you can and write the rest off as gone.
    = Send your drive to a data recovery service and hope they can extract more than you can.
    Of course, none of this is necessary if you have a backup of the contents of that hard drive. (If you don't, this is your learning experience. Once bitten, twice shy, so they say.) Also, regardless of the outcome, once you've got your data or have decided it's gone, you're going to want to wipe that drive completely clean. Reformat the drive with Disk Utility, then when it's done, select the drive in Disk Utility and hit command-i. (Don't select the new volume you just created on that drive, select the drive itself. Mine looks like "232.9 GB Hitachi ..." with the volume name indented underneath.) Look for an item that says S.M.A.R.T. Status, and if it doesn't say Verified, you might as well throw out the drive. Don't trust any more data to it.
    If all appears safe, you can start moving data back onto it. But, as always, make sure you have a backup of everything!

  • Problems with ListViews Drag and Drop

    I'm surprised that there isn't an Active X control that can do this more
    easily? Would
    be curious to find out if there is - although we aren't really embracing the
    use of
    them within Forte because it locks you into the Microsoft arena.

    Subject: Problems with ListViews Drag and Drop
    I am just curious as to other people's experiences with the ListView
    widget when elements in it are set to be draggable. In particular, I am
    currently trying to design an interface that looks a lot like Windows
    Explorer where a TreeView resides on the left side of the window and a
    ListView resides on the right side. Upon double clicking on the
    ListView, if the current node that was clicked on was a folder, then the
    TreeView expands this folder and the contents are then displayed in the
    ListView, otherwise, it was a file and it is brought up in Microsoft
    Word. All this works great if I don't have the elements in the ListView
    widget set to be draggable. If they are set to be draggable, then I am
    finding that the DoubleClick event seems to get registered twice along
    with the ObjectDrop event. This is not good because if I double click
    and the current node is a folder, then it will expand this folder in the
    TreeView, display the contents in the ListView, grab the node that is
    now displayed where that node used to be displayed and run the events
    for that as well. What this means, is that if this is a file, then Word
    is just launched and no big deal. Unfortunately, if this happens to be
    another directory, then the previous directory is dropped into this
    current directory and a recursive copy gets performed, giving me one
    heck of a deep directory tree for that folder.
    Has anybody else seen this, or am I the only lucky one to experience.
    If need be, I do have this exported in a .pex file if anybody needs to
    look at it more closely.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Problems with Customer Service AND unexplained charges!

    I've been with Verizon for I-don't-know-how-many years, and through the years you are bound to have a few problems here and there but some of the problems are just ridiculous! It's also the same reocurring problem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was with Alltel first, before it was bought out by Verizon. The years I was with Alltel, I didn't have near as many problems. It seems EVERY time I do the smallest change or something to my phone or bill, I get a ridiculous amount of charges that I was NOT aware of, nor told about... EVEN IF I ask "So this isn't going to change my bill, or there will not be any unexpected/unexplained charges that I don't know about?"... BUT not matter how many times I ask... and NO matter how many times I am told "no"... there always is. For example.... last year, I updated and signed a new 2 year contract and purchased the first Driod. Before, my 30 day warranty was up, I was having problems with my Driod, and decided to send it in and get a new one. Before I did this.. I called customer service to make sure there would be no interuption in my bill, and there wouldn't be any unexpect charges, and there would be no difference in anything. I was told there was not, and once I recieved my new phone, just send it in and nothing would be changed. Of course, when I get my bill.. I see I was charged $500 for the new phone. It was explained to me that my credit card was reimbursed (which I never check that card, because I never used it expect to purchase the phone) and that I was recharged for the new phone, since it was a new phone. So I had to fork out the $500 (on top of my bill) and then wait months to get the $100 rebate card. Months after that, I "assumed liablity of my line" because I was on a plan with my family. I decided to have my own line, so I "assumed liability." I was not told that when I did that, I "renewed" my contract date. So I just added 6 more months to my 2 year contract. Was NOT told about that! Then again...... I was recently having problems with my Driod (the screen went black and would not come back on.) I had to turn on an OLD motorola razor, so I would not be without a phone for two days while I was waiting on my phone to come in. As soon as my phone came in, I had my Droid turned back on. I recieved my bill recently, and my bill was $200 over what it normally should be.... so I called in... apparently, when I had my phone replaced, they dropped off my data package and when I recieved my replacement driod, they never put it back on. So I was being charged for alllll my data usage... again I was NOT told about this. I wasn't even aware that they had dropped off my data package, and when/where did they get the authority to do that??? These are just a FEW of the problems that I have had.................................
    Does anyone have these reoccuring problems!?

    I understand that my bill can be viewed online, and I do view it fairly regularly, so if there are any unexplained charges, I can call Verizon asap. The problem does not come from me not understanding my bill, but from customer service. I have been with Verizon for a very long time, and it is a continuing problem. Where did Verizon get the 'OK' to drop my data package off my plan? Who authorized that?
    After calling Verizon and trying to find out the problem, the gentleman told me that when I activated on old phone while I was waiting on my new Droid to arrive, my data package was dropped off and I "should" have been told about that. When I reactiviated my new Droid, I "should" have called and had them restart my data package. I was not aware that when you activate an old phone that data plan is taken off your plan. In all my years of having cell phones, I never make two years with one phone. I have always, at one point, had to turn on an old phone, and my data package has NEVER changed. Why would I have my data package dropped and why would I have to call Verizon to have it restarted. I would never know to do that unless I was TOLD that my data packaged HAD to be re-added when I recieved my new phone, but I was never told of that.
    All of that is beside the point, the point is, Verizon was never given the authorization to change my plan. Never. My bill was taken care of and readjusted, and I am thankful for that. It does not change the fact it is always a hassle with Verizon Customer Service and I am always the one having to PROVE that I am not at fault, or that I was NEVER told of certian things. EVERY TIME I HAVE CALLED CUSTOMER SERVICE, I AM TOLD "I'M SORRY, THEY SHOULD HAVE TOLD YOU THAT."
    "they should" does not help my bill with the extra armount of charges.

  • Problems with dropped calls and no reception on Samsung Continuum

    My mother and I both purchased a Samsung Continuum in late March 2011, and have experienced the same problems with the phone.  The device drops at least 2-3 calls per day, often on the same conversation; we have not found that location or time of day makes a difference.  The phone freezes up frequently, even if no apps are running in the background.  We lose our 3G network reception frequently, and cannot access our texts, emails, or the internet.  The screen saver kicks in even when we are actively dialing a number, or typing in a text message.  The overall performance of the phone is also poor, and it is quite slow much of the time.
    We have raised this issue several times with a representative at one of the Verizon stores, but he states that he can find no problem with the phone, and that these issues may not be covered under our insurance plan.  None of my friends with non-Samsung phones are having the same problems with phone reception and performance.  I am aggravated enough with these issues that I am considering reactivating my old Blackberry, which worked like a charm.
    I am not upset that my phone has not been updated to Android 2.2.  I just want the phone to perform as stated, and not fail at its primary function:  making and receiving phone calls.  I am not certain if these problems originate with the phone, Verizon, or Samsung, nor do I care.  I just want to resolve these issues as soon as possible, or I will have to look at other alternatives.
    Thank you.

    If this doesn't work...now what??? I have a useless $400 plus piece of unreliable junk. My Motorola Razor was ions more reliable than this phone...very, very sad but true.
    What carrier were you using with the Razor? AT&T? Same area?

  • Problems with Mail, Safari and iTunes after updating to 10.5.6

    Hi all,
    after installing 10.5.6 I have problems with Mail, Safari and iTunes.
    The time to open mails, websides and iTunes store is increasing dramatically since the update. If I open a webside parallel with Safari and Firefox, Safari needs minimum 15 times longer to open the complete side. Mails containing HTML-code also needs a long time to be opened. Tha same Problem with iTunes store. Connecting to the Store costs at least 30 - 40 seconds. And unfortunately for every iTunes store side I open. Its terrible
    Any idea or workaroung to solve that problem?
    Regards
    Michael

    First, run Disk Utility and repair permissions and then restart.
    I installed the 10.5.6 Combo update. Sometimes things get "lost in the translation" when you use Software Update depending on your installation. Perhaps you can download 10.5.6 Combo from the website and install it from your desktop.

  • Problems with the richTextEditor and quotes

    Hello
    I'm having problems with quote chars and the richText
    control's htmlText. When users enter quotes into the richTextEditor
    control. The quotes breaks the HTML text, meaning it's no longer
    well formatted. Is there an escape char that I need to use. Or do I
    need to force some kind of refresh on the control prior to using
    the htmlText string?

    I have been using RTE in a content management system and
    found a need to replace non-standard quote characters with proper
    UTF-8 character counterparts. Curly quotes in particular are
    problematic. Use a replace function to substitute non-standard for
    standard characters.

  • Problems with .ARW files and auto toning

    problems with .ARW files and auto toning
    let me try to explain this because this has happened in past and never found a way to resolve but i lived with it
    now that I have a Sony A7R the problem is more serious
    Firstly i take pride it making the picture happen all in camera, i use DRO lvl 5 to get enough light, like when i'm shooting at dusk. DRO its like doing HDR but in a single file, it lightens the darks. in my camera i'm happy with results
    but when I upload them to lightroom, they come out near black.
    allow me to explain
    lets say I import 100 images
    i double check my preferences and everything is UNCHECKED when it comes to importing options, there is no auto toning, nothing.
    as the images import i see a preview in the thumbnail which looks fine.
    i double click on one to enlarge it, hence leave grid view.
    for a brief 1 or 2 seconds, i see the full image in all its glory but than lightroom does something funny, it darkens the image
    one by one as it inspects each image, if it was a DRO image it makes it too dark.
    to make this clear, the image is perfect as it was in the beginning but after a few seconds lightroom for some reason thinks it needs to correct it.
    how to prevent lightroom from doing this, i want the image exactly as it is, why must lightroom apply a correction>?
    i think it has to do something with interpreting the raw file and lightroom applies its own algorithm.
    but here is what i dont get.....before lightroom makes the change i'm able to witness the picture exactly as it was taken and want it unchanged..
    now i have to tweak each file or find a profile for it which is added work.
    any ideas how to prevent lightroom from ruining my images and just leave them as they were when first detected...
    there are 2 phases...one is when it originally imports and they look fine
    second is scanning each image and applying some kind of toning which darkens it too much.
    thanks for the help

    sorry thats the auto reply message from yahoo email.
    i've disabled it now
    thing is, there is no DRO jpg to download from the camera
    its only ARW. so my understanding is when i use DRO setting, the camera makes changes to the ARW than lightroom somehow reads this from the ARW.
    but then sadly reverts it to no DRO settings.
    because i notice if i take normal picture in raw mode its dark but if i apply dro to it, it comes out brighter, yet when i d/l the image from camera to lightroom, which is an ARW - there are no jpgs. lightroom decides to mess it up
    so in reality there is no point in using DRO because when i upload it lightroom removes it.
    is there a way to tell lightroom to preserve the jpg preview as it first sees it.
    its just lame, picture appears perfect...than lightroom does something, than bam, its ruined,.
    what do i need to do to prevent lightroom from ruining the image? if it was good in the first place.
