How would I know, unless I asked, Noel. Thank you very much Harry. "Noel Paton" wrote in message ... You should find most of the answers here http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/faqs/acroread.html -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2006, Windows) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.crashfixpc.com/millsrpch.htm http://tinyurl.com/6oztj Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's "webster72n" wrote in message ... Oh boy, Noel, here it goes: When I mentioned plugins, I was referring to the files with the Acrobat icon. As I opened them, the warning message about missing plugins was displayed. In my thinking, those files were plugins, but that apparently is wrong. Where do I look for the "plugins" to delete? Hopefully I don't 'bore' you. Harry. "Noel Paton" wrote in message ...

To All: By now I am able to answer my own question(s): Apparently that message was due to the presence of the plug-ins for the Acrobat Reader. Once I removed and then reinstalled the Acrobat Reader and reassigned Foxit as the active Reader, those pesty messages were gone and Foxit is in its element. But Acrobat must still remain as a program, or the plugins will become just 'word' files. If there is a way around this, I would like to know it. Thanks. Harry. "webster72n" wrote in message ... Foxit works mighty slick, Mike, but I get this error message, that windows cannot find a pdf file, even though it found it, so I just click it 'off'. But why the message? Should I simply ignore it? Harry. "Mike M" wrote in message ... webster72n wrote: Thank you Mike. What will happen to the existing Adobe files after I'd change to Foxit? Can it open them? Harry, Yes. Foxit can read most if not all pdf files generated by Adobe Acrobat and other pdf generators. That may sound illiterate to you, but it's a question for me. At any rate, I am going to try the desktop method first. Best of luck, -- Mike Maltby |
