In a browser window? In Acrobat? Another application? On a VB form?

On a VB form
Sorry for delay.

Then just drop a webbrowser control on the form, and .Navigate to your pdf, e.g.

[COLOR=blue]Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Form1.WebBrowser1.Navigate2 "[URL unfurl="true"]https://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/tests/xhtml/testfiles/resources/pdf/dummy.pdf"[/URL]
End Sub[/color]
