Hi Lee,
   I did a new clean install of Adobe 7 pro on my computer.   Then I 
tried to install Reader 9.1 using the standard adobe user download 
method (I used Internet Explorer 6) which insists on loading an active X 
control  DLM (down load manager).   It failed near the end of the 
download with an error message "
Extraction failed for unknown reason.  Info Id 6702.347.203.220024
      I thought this problem might  be caused by the Active X control 
and Internet Explorer so I retried to download it using Firefox Internet 
Browser 3.08 (the latest version).   This download also install the DLM 
and was still a little flaky but I did end up with a copy of the adobe 
9.1 install file in my download directory.
      Then I was able to successfully install adobe 9.1 by directly 
running the adobe install file from my local computer with no error 
messages (I had to specify  a new install directory  "C:\program 
files\adobe\Reader9.1")
    I have the 9.1 install file on my computer I can ftp it to you or 
put it on my ftp site and let you down load it if you need me to. It is 
42 MB "AdbeRdr910_en_US_Std.exe"
   The 91. Reader seems to handle the grant forms perfectly and will let 
you save your edited versions of the forms.
So I have both 7.0 pro and 9.1 Reader on my computer right now.   To 
open the grant you may have to save the grant form to your computer and 
then open 9.1 Reader and tell it to open the form.
