DDE control TeXnicCenter

I use TeXnicCenter for LaTeX and would like to have the DDE controls working to easily view the pdf versions. Acrobat X seems to have changed the servername and this is breaking things. I tried "AcroViewR10" or "acroviewR10" and other combination, but still it does not work.

As a work around, using command line argument "%bm.pdf" works, but I manually need to close the pdf everytime before recompiling. So, it takes an extra click or so.

Can anyone give some insight to solve the problem either by fixing DDE or how to close the pdf automatically when it is recompiled?

For those using Acrobat X pro, the server should be AcroviewA10 and the excecutable should be Acrobat.exe
