In addition to all the answers you've got so far, I use this method:
Add the _shellexecute class from the _environ.vcx class library that ships with VFP 9 to a form
Name it 'launcher'
and run this code from the click event of a button:
Local cDocName
cDocName = GetFile('doc,xls,pdf,txt','File','Open',0,'Choose file') thisform.launcher.shellexecute (cDocName)
You can launch any file with the above extensions that you select with the getfile function
That's all there is to it

Good afternoon,
Does anyone have a quick and dirty way to display a PDF from VFP either in a form, or natively using Adobe Reader?
Any assistance would be GREATLY appreciated...
Regards, Desmond
