Have a look at the reference for the fileXtra code to launch program. I can't remember it all.
To call the code in directro from flash use this code on your flash button:-
on (release) {
getURL("lingo:testFunction");
}replace testFuction with whatever you want to call your function. The in Director create a movie script and put this code in it:-
on testFunction
do a bunch of stuff
end testFunctionput the code you need to launch your pdf in there.
To make a movie script you need to create a new script and then in the script properties window change the drop down menu to read "Movie".
I find that the best way to test a function like this is to use beep.
ie
on testFunction
beep
end testFunctionthat way its a piece of piss to know when the function worked cos your computer makes that nice ping noise
