Hi Whirlers,
I'm working in a Notes database
that produces Html for an Intranet
site -- and the DB designers have
assured me that the product launches
pdf files attached via the File/Attach
command. (I have to believe them because
I've seen them launch attachments
within it...)
Unfortunately, I'm working remotely,
and I've tried many tricks to get
this to work...

This seems like a really obvious question, but do you have Acrobat Reader
installed on the computer that you're using?
I've noticed that even when you "View" a PDF attachment in Lotus Notes,
Acrobat Reader launches instead of the standard Notes Viewer.
HTH,
Emily
