Hyperlink Field
Start by checking:
Do you have pdf viewing software loaded (e.g. Foxit, Adobe Reader) Do you (in Windows) have that software associated with the .pdf extension? Try opening that pdf file by directly double clicking on it. Does it work? If not you have a problem outside of Access.

I can open it by double clicking outside of Access. So still don't know the
problem. Thanks anyway. -- Anthony "Fred" wrote: Start by checking: Do you have pdf viewing software loaded (e.g. Foxit, Adobe Reader) Do you (in Windows) have that software associated with the .pdf extension?
