rundll32.exe not working on windows 2003 server

I used following command on windows xp and its working perfectly fine.

rundll32.exe url.dll,FileProtocolHandler c: est.pdf


but the same command is doing nothing at all on windows 2003 server (precisely, Windows 2003 R2, Enterprise Edition, SP-2). My requirement actually is to open pdf documents saved on local disks from with in oracle form6i for which i intent to use

HOST('cmd /c rundll32.exe url.dll, FileProtocolHandler 'c: est.pdf'');


command, which is not working offcourse. The point is, if a command is not working on the dos shell in the first place, how will that run from oracle forms. So plz help me how to run this command on windows 2003? why the same command opens pdf perfectly fine on xp but not on 2003?

Thanks.
