To clarify that... ShellExecute() is what you'd use if you wanted to call it from a Windows program (like your VB program -- or, I often do it from C)

If you want to execute it as a remote command, you probably want to use ShellExec_RunDLL instead. There's an example here:

(Except, replace the XLS document in the example with your PDF document)
