Hi,

This easy example is trying to test more COM objects using my Activex2Dll tool.

In this case the example let us embed a Pdf viewer (let you change page, zoom, hide/show tool bars, etc) in a PB window with easy.

*You must have Acobat reader installed.

Fred:

One question that i have, can you provide us an ole container?
Its neccesary if we try to use visible COM objects. In this example i use the webgadget as an ole container, but maybe could be easier having an Ole Container.

What I used to do, is open a webgadget and load a pdf file. (works fine)

Your code goes beyond that. Now you can control the acrobat engine... :wink:

Yes, thats the idea.

I will do the same example with a Flash movie to be controled by the PB application (i already show one that let us create some flash movie on the fly).

The idea is to take control over many very interesting COM objects.
