Is it possible in VB6 to open a PDF document and have it go right to certain page i.e. pg 264?
I don't want to diplay the pdf using the iexplorer plug-in, I'ld rather it display in a form.

Thanks,

Steve
 
Hi, I think you can use pdf.ocx and display a PDF on the form, or go to a certain page. It is a pretty straight forward component to use. you can find it in Acorbat Reader\activeX directory.
 
Actually with Reader 7.0 installed, I didn't see it in the ActiveX directory anymore? I do have it from an installation of Acrobat V6.0 Standard, which won't work with Reader.
Anyone have any other ideas?
