Opening .pdf or word documents

[Wings]

Hello,
Does anyone know how I can open a pdf and word document with borland c++ 5 builder?

Thanks

Howdy,

I am not sure, as I have never tried it, but you could try to import the Adobe PDF ActiveX control into a project to view pdf's.

It may not work like you want, but it is an idea...

Good luck~

Wings,
[tab]Do want to open the .pdf or .doc in a program with the linked app, i.e., you program calls Word to open .doc and Reader to open .pdf?

2ffat,
Yes that is exactly what I want.
If it is a word document, I want to open word and the document, the same for the pdf file.
Thanks

Look at faq101-1952 (ShellExecute), faq101-1953 (ShellExecuteX), and faq101-1954 (CreateProcess).
