Desmond, As well as that we use XFRX to produce our PDF's and the system detailed in the last message to store them on disk in SQL. Displaying PDF's is no problem at all using VFP and I forgot to add We can also drag attachments from emails directly onto the VFP app which then stores the attachment in SQL which is I assume more akin to what you want to do as opposed to our paper system i.e drag/drop a PDF onto a VFP APp and then file it away
Dave -----Original Message----- From: ProFox [mailto:profox-boun...@leafe.com] On Behalf Of Desmond Lloyd Sent: 16 August 2013 16:43 To: ProFox Email List Subject: VFP9: Document Management Good morning, Has anyone attempted to manage PDF's from a VFP application? Let's say a manufacturing system where everything is tracked by some sort of order number (Manufacturing and/or purchasing). I imagine a kind of "behind the scenes" kind of thing where a selection to print to the document manager or printing in general would output a PDF to a specific place on the server. Resulting in a set of documents being made available for a specific manufacturing or purchase order. Perhaps the creation of an index that would maintain a listing of the documents for the particular order. One could then link to the set of documents from a specific order display or via a separate "document management' interface. Thoughts, possible recommended tools for outputting the PDF, Displaying the PDF....
