I loaded Adobe Reader 7 on my VM and it worked with the
wx.ActiveX_PDFWindow perfectly. However, it does not work at all with
version 8. No errors are reported. The window just remains blank.

Acrobat Reader 7 and see if it makes a difference, but my
target clients all moved to version 8 because of some
security holes in prior versions...Does anyone have wx.ActiveX_PDFWindow working with Acrobat Reader 8?
