[OT] Windows Command Help

[xbury.cs at clearstream.com]

Dan

if you type 

echo %ProgramFiles%
you will get the path by default were apps are installed

you can do a find using the F3 or WindowKey+F and search for acrobat...

if the exe is not in your paths then, there's no way windows will go 
looking for it...

I just tried it
D:\NBU 5.0\Doc>start MediaMgr_AdminGuide_SSO.pdf
it works...

cheers
