Kevin,

Thank you very much!  That worked great (the pdf.ocx).  I love this
group!

Thanks,

John:

Try inserting the Adobe pdf OCX. Go to "Project" menu then 
to "Components". On the "Controls" tab, click browse and go to the 
(usually) "C:\Program Files\Adobe..." folder...look for the file 
called "pdf.ocx". Select this. This will add the pdf control to your
list 
of controls. Insert this into your form. I believe this control has a 
Print method, as well as LoadFile to open your file. If all you need to
do 
is Print it, you may want to check out some of the threads on API
Printing 
calls, in which you can tell VB the file to print, you may not need the 
above.
