Opening pdf files with VB6
Opening pdf files with VB6
(OP)
I need to display a manual which is saved as a pdf file.
I would like to do this by clicking on a control button in a main menu screen.
Does anyone have any code to do this or alternatively a code that will open the acrobat reader and then the pdf file.
All replies appreciated
Thanks in advance
