Action button problems

[Guest]

I created a presentation on my home pc with ppt 2003 trial. I loaded it on
my laptop and it opened fine in ppt 2003 professional version. However, the
action button links I had created to open up pdf files that worked fine on my
home pc now try to open up and then disappear. I have verified path of file
and that acrobat reader 7.0 was used on both pc's and the file opens fine
alone in adobe. Please respond asap. I need to fix this before my
presentation tomorrow 5/23.

Sincerely,
Chad Snowbarger

Update Acrobat on the problem machine. I believe the latest update to
Acrobat 7 resolves this issue.

You're very welcome. And thank you both for posting back to let us know it
worked *and* for including in your original post which version of Acrobat
(and PPT, for that matter) you're working with!
