Karen, in most cases are these smaller files (thinking a head here) always going to be reviewed? Such that as it is being saved you could also store a smaller image/off and then show those verses the actual full size image.

To: <[email protected]> What's inside those PDF files? Is it a scanned image, or an actual set of generated text? If it's text, there are two other options you might consider: 1. Convert to RTF (if possible) and store that. Use a DBRichEdit control to display, this should work in a region. 2. If the customer can tell you what he's looking for in the PDF, perhaps you can actually have your application search _into_ the PDF and only display the row or rows he's looking for without requiring visual inspection. -- Larry
