Hi guys,

I have a VBA macro that searches for a specified texts (Cell C5) in PDF files that are in a specified folder (cell C7). I have attached the file.

Macro is supposed to open the PDF's that contain the text, and then highlight it. Problem is, on my computer, the macro works fine. But on my client's computer, it only opens the pdf files, without actually highlighting the text. can you think of a reason why?

Can i attach the file for you guys to look at? if not, how do I paste the VBA code here?

Thanks!
