I'm writing an application that will manage a database of documents typed
into the application by the user. Some documents will contain links to other
documents. If the user clicks on a link, the application will get the linked
document from the database and display it. The .NET 2.0 WebBrowser control
looks like a good candidate to display the documents (document entry will by
done by a form with text boxes).
Here are my questions:
(1) Is the WebBrowser a good candidate for this role? Are there better
Windows Form controls readily available?
(2) Are there any good examples out there of how to code the links? From
MSDN, the best approach seems to be to store the record ID of the linked
document in the URI property, then trap the Navigating event and get the ID
from the event args. Are there better approaches?
Thanks in advance.
