Hello again!

Ok, I'll try to make it a bit clearer. Imagine this table:

Property Name  | Blah 1 | .... Blah n | HELP_BUTTON
property 1         |            |                 | btnHelp
propery 2          |            |                 |btnHelp

It the user presses the btnHelp, the Pdf help-file should appear on the screen. 
This document has the explanations for all the properties. For example:

1. Property 1 
    blahblah and more blah.

2. Property 2
    blaaaah (tables, diagrams...)

Because the help is amassed in one file, the client would want this behavior: 
-user clicks on property "n" btnHelp
-pdf document opens scrolled directly to "n. Property n....." - much like the 
bookmark behavior

I found the SetOpenAction method. It executes when the document opens. But it 
needs some parameters. It needs a LocalDestination. And here i thought that the 
"text searching" would come in. I was thinking that:
- get Property Name from the table
- search "n. property n" string in the PDF
- get the coordinates, location of the string occurrence 
- set the Open Action
would to the trick.

But can I do that? Any other suggestions or solutions would be welcomed.

Thank you for your time & patience.
