I have run into another opportunity with using the following statement
from within an RPGLE program.

strpccmd pccmd('start acrord32.exe \\ip address\tmp\mypdf.pdf') pause(*yes)

This seemed to work well until one user tried the program using a Vista
installation. They got an error message when Acrobat reader tried to open
the document. The error message was something like this.

Adobe reader encountered an error while trying to open the document.
Access is denied.

From the archive, I found that /tmp can be a bit of a problem. I copied
the document to another folder with the same results. I checked the
authorities on the document. The user is the owner.

I have unchecked the Restrict rename and unlink secruity property of both
folders. Same results.

I copied the document from iSeries Navigator to the Vista desktop. The
document opens without problem.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
