Hi,

Has anyone used the Preview 1.0 Type Library (shimgvw.dll) found in Windows XP (and sometimes 2000). This is the ActiveX of the Windows Picture and Fax viewer.

The Preview control can be pasted on to a VB6 form and used easily to display images.

Preview1.ShowFile "c:\test.tif", 1 'will display an image
Preview1.Zoom 1 ' will zoom into the image

But how can you move to the next page of a multi-page TIF ?

There are further classes in the PreviewLIB such as IImgCmdTarget with extra methods such as NextPage. Can you tie into these classes somehow ?

Thanks
Steve

Nobody replied and now, I have the same questions and cannot seem to find documentation on this on MSDN.
