Hi.

I am trying to point a table field to a file path of a pdf. And in a report that has various information, the final portion of the report would be that pdf. I don't want to store the pdf as a blob or anything if I don't have to.

Likely as not this is discussed in other posts, but all I am finding is automation of printing a report to a pdf.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,
ChaZ

What about using the unbound Object Frame and select Adobe Acrobat object?

Then point it to the PDF source.

Place that object at the group footer or report footer i think.

Just going off the top of my head.
 
Thank you Jeff.

I will be processing large numbers of these documents, and I did not want to manually add them to records, rather, I want to automate the import.

The viewing of the pdf's later in life will be an asp web page, so I don't need to think of the reports at the moment.

Again, thanks for the help.
