Optimized PDF files can be opened to a particular page while being served by HTTP (ex: This is a function of web servers (aka 'byte-serving'). However, you cannot do the same thing on a local file (ex: C:\My Documents\document.pdf#page=5)

Is there some way to direct a user to a particular page in Visual Basic? My company has a PDF document that we want to distribute on CD-ROM. The main interface for the CD-ROM will be a VB application. My hope is to allow the user to access individual pages within the PDF from an index in the VB app.

Can this be done?
