Hello.
I have connected a Sharepoint document as a data source.
And I have the folder/file displayed in the gallery, but when I click on the file, it opens in the browser.

I would like to open it in adbe acrobat app, not in the browser.
I entered the following code in Onselect and there was no error, but it does not open in the app.

Launch("acrobat:" & "https://www.sharepoint.com/sites/mySite/" & ThisItem.'full path ')

Hi @cater25 ,

The only setting that can control this in some way is this one, but it only works for MS programs (such as Word and Excel). I can tell you from experience that it does not work for Adobe.

If you have the Adobe Chrome extension it may work for you with "open in Acrobat", but I have had issues with this.

Hi. @WarrenBelz ,
Thank you for your response.
I understand that Adobe cannot function.

@cater25 as noted in your other post in the ProDev forum, Adobe can be set as your users' default, but it is a Windows setting, not a SharePoint one.
