How do I access LiveCycle Designer from my Adobe Acrobat X Pro?

[Mogadeet43512]

     I am unable to access LifeCycle ES2 from my Adobe Acrobat X pro, even though I am supposed to have it as part of the software.  I have tried Forms/Edit forms, and I have looked for it through all the menus.  Several of the helps I have found for other things has me launch LifeCycle and operate from screens that LifeCycle designer provides. 

    I am using Windows XP professional.

    I would appreciate all the help I can get on this. 

Thanks

There is a terminology issue here.  From Acrobat Pro X you launch Designer not LiveCycle ES2.  LiveCycle is a server product.

When you install Acrobat you have the option to install or not install Designer.  Look in the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0 and check to see if there is a Designer 9.0 folder.  When in Acrobat you should be able to create a new form and it will prompt if you want to use Designer.  If all else fails you can always go into the Designer 9.0 folder and launch FormDesigner.exe

This worked! I had to go into the system and launch it from the Designer

9.0 folder, but thanks to your instructions I now have use of it.

Thank You!

not LiveCycle ES2. LiveCycle is a server product.
