How to script changing all pdf links from "open in existing window" to "open in new window" throughout a pdf

Hi,

Does anyone know how to script changing the "open window" preference of
Acrobat throughout a pdf?

I know I can change the Reader preference via a script but I actually want
to change every external link in a PDF that links to another pdf
from "existing window" to "new window" and leave the user preference alone.

The reason I need this is that I generate a lot of PDFs via Indesign CS and
Indesign CS2 and that does not let me specify this property so I have to
change it later in Acrobat manually (I hope I can do this via a script) or
I'll have to redo the work entirely in Acrobat manually and my current pjt
has about 814 external links. The next one will have 13904 external links so
any help on this would be appreciated. Any ideas?

Best, Patrik
