viewing PDF in VB.Net

[Jason James]

Hi all,

does anyone have any pointers about
how to view PDF files in a vb.net windows
form?

Thanks,

Jason.

You can try using the Adobe Activex control..

Anand,

this control seems to work for the first PDF file,
but then it seems to crash and not load any
more files. Could I be doing something wrong?
Do you have any sample code?

Thanks,

Jason.

Jason,
Last time I checked into this (called Adobe support), they do not
support this ActiveX Reader control being hosted outside of a web
browser, hence the problems. I too wanted to use the control in a
window application but had to give up. You might contact Adobe yourself
to check again.
