Thank you for the pointer.  But I have to say that I had the strangest experience.  For reasons I don't understand, my original code works now (i.e., the linked PDF opens in a new Preview window when I click on it in the beamer PDF file that is also open in Preview).  The only thing that I've done since I posted my query is that I shut down and restarted my laptop over the weekend.

So, without making any changes to my code (above), it just seems to work now.

Thank you again.
