Excel 2007 2010 with Adobe Reader X - Cannot start the source application for this object
Came across issue with EXCEL 2007 and EXCEL 2010 that have Adoe Reader X installed. (Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro 8.2.5 also installed)
In EXCEL (2007 and 2010) when you:
1.) - - INSERT -> OBJECT -> Create New; Display as icon; Adobe Acrobat Document -> OK
- - - you receive * * notice in the Process Explorer window - AcroRd32.exe is being called up...
Receive slightly different messages this way
2.) INSERT -> OBJECT -> Create from file; 'path to existing PDF file'; Display as icon -> OK
you receive
Now banging my head on the wall... verified the Procserver registry path mentioned in older postings around the web,; yes the org chart thing is not an issue either.....
So we went to Reader X because we could not view PDF information on ADP Portal site... that being said...
I removed X, installed Reader 9 and updated it to latest update available from Adobe things it is 9.2.4 or something...
And tried again... and the Object insertion WORKS!!!!!
Of course I cannot view my paycheck anymore...
So the question is How does one Fix Exel 2007 / 2010 and Reader X so that object insertion works....?????
Anyone???
