Cannot start the source application for this object

An Adobe document is embedded into an excel program (as a package) and
whenever we try to open the pdf we get the error "Cannot start the
source application for this object". I have upgraded the Adobe Reader
to version 7.0.8. If you right click on it and select copy then go to


the desktop and select paste it will paste the document.


Any help would greatly be appreciated.

I have the same problem. From searching here I see that other people have it
as well; but yet no answers. This is what I am doing when I get the error.

Insert>Object>Create from file>Browse the pdf file

there an message appear when opening the inserted file-"Cannot start the
source application for this object"
