opening a pdf?

[99mel]

Is it possible to open a pdf save it and close it all in the background?

I'm using a dll which I can create an fdf file which holds data. When my code opens this fdf file using the ShellExecute command it then opens the pdf template with the data which i then want to save!

Simply all i'm wanting to do is open a file save it then close it without the user doing it?

Any help much appreciated

Hi,
Look in your system, normally, Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat\Reader\Ocx and you should see pdf.ocx

Add this control to your VB project, place it on the form, look at the events and you can load / save / print pdf files.
