If it's trying to open the file in Adobe reader it's usually one of two things:
- The Storyline file extension is .PDF which I assume isn't the case. However, sometimes people will change the extension of files to try to get it to open in a different app.
- The .story file extension is associated with Adobe reader. Thus when you try to open the story file it opens Adobe reader and you'll get an erro. That tends to happen when someone tries to open a file with a different app and then selects to always open the file with that app.
- Confirm that you're sending the *.story file.
- Have them open Storyline and then try to open the file from insider of Storyline
- Here are tips on associating file types to the correct program if that's what happened.

Thanks for your reply. I did have her download the file and then try to open in SL, same error. File extension is *.story because it's the file I'm actually working on. Not sure what my next step will be.
I'll try to see if she did a "always open with PDF" feature somewhere.
