Anand,

this control seems to work for the first PDF file,
but then it seems to crash and not load any
more files. Could I be doing something wrong?
Do you have any sample code?

Thanks,

Jason.

Jason,
Last time I checked into this (called Adobe support), they do not
support this ActiveX Reader control being hosted outside of a web
browser, hence the problems. I too wanted to use the control in a
window application but had to give up. You might contact Adobe yourself
to check again.
