I need to loop the following. I have, say, 3 file in the folder that I need
printed. The code does work, however, it will only bring up only one file and
I need to bring up all the files in the folder and pring them. Or could you
tell me were I can find some help on DOS or command prompt. Thanks

C:\program files\adobe\reader 8.0\reader>acrord32.exe /t/n c:\print
pdfs\*.pdf \\csg-amdc2\hplj9050mfp_9 adobeps tektonix phaser 840

Try this:

for %a in (c:\print\pdfs\*.pdf) do acrord32.exe /t/n "%a"
\\csg-amdc2\hplj9050mfp_9 adobeps tektonix phaser 840 172.21.211.116

Type

for /?

at the Command Prompt to see how it works.

Oh, so close. It brought up three different Adobe reads but could not display
the pdf. I'm not sure if that's a short coming of Adobe or could something be
missing?
Thanks, by the way.

If the command

acrord32.exe /t/n "SomeFile.pdf" \\csg-amdc2\hplj9050mfp_9 adobeps tektonix
phaser 840 172.21.211.116

works then my initial suggestion will work too. I think
you need to put a little more work into the command
itself.

How do you mean "more work into the command"? If you please.

You proposed this command:

acrord32.exe /t/n "SomeFile.pdf" \\csg-amdc2\hplj9050mfp_9 adobeps tektonix
phaser 840 172.21.211.116

I have a strong suspicion that it is not quite correct. Check
the Acrobat FAQs for the correct syntax!
