I want to programmatically fill in some fields in a form in PDF format.
I tried this code:
Set objAdobe = CreateObject("AcrobatReader.Application")
objAdobe.Visible = True
I get the "ActiceX component can't create object" error.
The OLE automation interface is only provided by Adobe Acrobat, not Adobe Reader.
If you have Adobe Acrobat installed, you can launch it from VBScript like this:
Set oAcrobat = CreateObject("AcroExch.App")
oAcrobat.Show
For a complete reference of Acrobat's automation API, see the "OLE Automation" section of this document.
