Here's an excerpt from the policy that I use to give users access to the full version of Adobe 6.0. All settings go under HKCU. I believe the one that refers to the .OCX file is what controls IE.

I succesfully managed with help of respective reg-files to redirect users based on group membership to have either the AcroReader or the full version open up when double clicking a pdf file. What regkey do I have to change to have the same behaviour when opening pdf files from within the internet explorer? Can someone give me a hint on this? All your input is appreciated very much Peter ******************************************************** This Weeks Sponsor: ThinPrint, GmbH Now available: .print Remote Desktop Printing Engine for Microsoft Terminal Services http://www.thinprint.com/dotprint/index.php?s=682&lc=1 ********************************************************** Useful Thin Client Computing Links are available at: http://thin.net/links.cfm ThinWiki community - Excellent SBC Search Capabilities! http://www.thinwiki.com *********************************************************** For Archives, to Unsubscribe, Subscribe or set Digest or Vacation mode use the below link: http://thin.net/citrixlist.cfm
