Open PDF File via Link

[cranium144]

Hi there.  I'm attempting to be able to click on a filename and have it open in Acrobat (in this case, a PDF).  I've successfully created a link for tracking numbers that opens a webpage.  And I have gotten the PDF file to open in development.  However, when I try via browser, it gives an error that it cannot find the file. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

We do this now.  Our preferred method is to use a button that uses the Open URL action to get to a web site.

We also open PDF documents that are stored on our server by using the launch action with filename

Are you trying with chrome or IE ?

Which version of QV you are using ?

The browsers cannot find the file. 

Is the file hosted on an IIS Server?  If so try entering the full URL path for the file in the client's browser http://server1/document1.pdf

It's most likely a permissions issue.
