hmj6jmh has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
This may seem like a silly question, but I have scoured the net and tried many different permutations of using the perl system command to open a PDF I generated in a script, and it doesn't work. Here is the latest permutation:
system("C:\\Program Files\\Adobe\\Acrobat 9.0\\Acrobat\\Acrobat.exe", $outname); This opens acrobat but not the file itself in acrobat. What is the correct syntax?
