I had uploaded a pdf file in my application(using file upload control) and saved it as an image datatype in SQL server 2005 table.I checked the DB it is getting the file in a binary format .My question is how to display the Pdf file stored in DB ?.if i select a pdf file stored in a table it should open in a new window.

any useful links and code snippets will be welcomed .Remember i am storing the pdf file using a image datatype.

with regards

Hi,

You haven't mentioned whether asp.net/windows form

For windows forms
If you want to display the pdf file in the embedded form, you can use
pdf viewer.

Sample code of mine:


Dim Adobepdf As New AxAcroPDFLib.AxAcroPDF


                        Adobepdf.Dock = System.Windows.Forms.DockStyle.Fill
                        Adobepdf.Enabled = True
                        Adobepdf.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(0, 0)
                        Adobepdf.Name = "Adobepdf"
                        Adobepdf.Size = New System.Drawing.Size(556, 384)
                        Adobepdf.TabIndex = 3


                        Me.PanelContainer.Controls.Clear()
                        Me.PanelContainer.Controls.Add(Adobepdf)

                        Dim ctl As AxAcroPDFLib.AxAcroPDF
                        ctl = Adobepdf
                                                If System.IO.File.Exists(sFileFullPath) Then
                            ctl.LoadFile(sFileFullPath)
                        Else
                            MsgBox("Could not load file")
                        End If
