Hi to all the gurus out there.

Anybody whos ever worked in an office enviroment will vouch that the boss somtimes expects the imposible.

todays one such day for me.

The story starts with an idea to automatically attach unlimited amounts of PDF's to an emial, ussing the Acrobat program.

Quickly you begin to understand that Adobe can only ever attch the one PDF to an email at the one time, no more Pdf's can be attached.

then the idea qickly circum navigats to creating a VBA form that displays all the attachments collected throughout the PDF by a copy move .bat extension that places the selected files in a temporary folder.

nevermind as complex as it sounds it works execpt now that the administrator has blocked (so says adobe) acrobat from executing files from linked buttons. in otherwords what im doing works but i havent got the security clearance to initiate it.

what i would like to know is either of two things.

dose anybody know a kosher logical way around the buttons triggering the bat extension files.

OR....

dose anybody know how to write HTML (dread it but even perhaps JAVAScript) to mimic the otherwise very simple functions of

COPY MOVE and DELETE ALL FILES FROM THIS FOLDER

wich i have now written in *.bat

(the trick is not to have to click through links to links but rather have the files automaticaly run when triggerd by buttons within the PDF...

How somthing so simple is turned so complex but thats the life of an assistant i guess...

thanks-
