more on PDF and VFP

I was just fooling around and did the following:

(I have the free version of FoxitReader installed in my computer)

I created a form and inserted the FoxitReader control which was now available in my PC and named it pdfreader

In the click event of a button I put this code:

thisform.pdfreader.openFile ('c:\donna\columbia.pdf')

It opened the pdf file in the form as expected.

Caveat: the FoxitReader menu was also inside the control.

This is not ideal, but at least should give some idea on how to deal with the insertable activex controls.
