How do I open a pdf file within access 2000, either by a switchboard button
or macro or a standard control button?

Access doesn't have the ability to read PDF files.

If what you're wanting to do is launch Acrobat Reader from within Access,
you can use the FollowHyperlink method, or you can use the ShellExecute API
(see http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0018.htm at "The Access Web" for an
example)
