First off, I am sorry to post this question. I promise I did search for exactly what I needed concerning my particular interest but I can only find issues and comments that are beyond what I need.
My simple problem is that I have a windows app written in C# that will display a PDF file, in Adobe, using Process (opening the app externally). I pass the file name in the Process.StartInfo.Argument value. Everything works well, but now I am asked to do this in a web page. 
I have searched for just a simple way to display a pdf file in a web page (aspx) and cannot find a tutorial, comment or any thing. Everywhere I have search usually had to do with converting or something else that is more than what I need.I don't have to do any conversions or special rendering, I just have to pass the .pdf file name somewhere so that the page can display it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Basically, you need your user to have Acrobat, just like your windows app. You can just link to a PDF and the browser should open it, or you can set the content type and use response.binarywrite to pass a pdf down in response to a page event.

I have a hidden panel where I have a TextBox. When the panel is displayed, the TextBox loses focus.
I say loses because if the panel is initially displayed, then the TextBox gets the focus. But if you hide it, then come back (show it), focus from the TextBox is gone.
FYI, I'm also using AJAX's UpdatePanel around these.
Any idea?
Thanks.

Dude ...i Suggest You ..to do the task by Java Script Take a pannel as u have done so and a button when button one is click call a function in javascript check the property of panel as document.getElementById('panel1').style.display == ""
if yes make it equal to none
if not make it equal to ""
and after this statement add document.form1['TextBox1.focus();

Hi Sandeep,
Thanks for your response.
Both in the Page Load and the Click event handler for my link button, I have the following:
<br />
if (pnlSearch.Visible == true)<br />
{<br />
form1.DefaultFocus = "txtSearch";
}<br />

Are you using the UpdatePanel to hide the TextBox, i.e. setting Visibility to false on the TextBox (or any control containing the TextBox)?
In that case, you are not really hiding the TextBox, but actually removing it. When you show it again, a new TextBox (which is identical to the previous) is added to the page. As it's not even the same TextBox, it can naturally not keep focus.
Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.

So, what's the solution?
There must be some.

I have data in fields in a form and I want to have a button that when I click the button it will create a pdf report with
the data from the fields in the pdf report. I'm not sure what way to code this.
Anyone know how to do this?

Your best bet is to use some reporting engine to create your reports, then they can be output to PDF. CrystalReports, ActiveReports, Sql Server Reporting Services all have solutions. Or just search google for "pdf report" and you'll find many solutions which are compatible with your platform.

Hi
I have a javascript function which at the moment is set for the mouseover in my div tag
I would like to control this function through my c# for checkchange of a checkbox
How would I do this?
thanks!

How do you want to "control" the function?
The server code and the client script doesn't exist at the same time, and not at the same place. The server code is run to create the html document, which is then sent to the browser, where the Javascript code is started.
You can send information from the script to the server when the browser is sending a request to the server. From the server code you can put things in the page, that will become part of the client script when the page is loaded in the browser.
Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.

|

you can type code as checkbox's click method:
ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock(this.GetType(), "control", "you function");

cannot CreateObject("com.sun.star.ServiceManager")
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The error I get while running <varname> = CreateObject("com.sun.star.ServiceManager") is cannot create ActiveX object
I have got this working while running in dev mode (ie able to step through code) which means the worker process is running as the person I am logged in with (in this case Administrator), but when I access the page from another machine (on the same network) it falls over with cannot create ActiveX object on the line varname = CreateObject("com.sun.star.ServiceManager")
I think this is down to premission issues of the network user, so I have allowed network user permissions to open office in dcom+ which didnt solve it. I then tralled the registry giving permissions for anything with regards to openoffice and writer, still to no avail.
Has anyone out there experienced a similar issue? More importantly did you manage to get it resolved??
Details: Win2k3 server; ASP.NET 2.0; VS Express Edition 2008; IIS6.0
Thanks for any help offered.

Hi Guffa,
I am trying to count the number of pages in a document and return the value to a variable. I am using ASP.NET (VB) running ASP.NET 2.0 on IIS6.0 Win2k3. I have acheived this result when running the code as an Administrator, the problem comes in when running the code as Network Service which indicates a permissions issue of some sort?
What do you think?

Going by the CreateObject function he has mentioned, it looks like he is trying to do some automation stuff either with StarOffice or OpenOffice.

Either the classID is not registered properly (installation issue) or Permissions problem for ASP.NET?

Hi Vasudevan,
I think it is a permissions issue persoanlly, but am completely open to suggestions for things to try.. The reason I think it's permissions is because when running the code under an administrator it works fine (ie creates the object) and continues running the code. Your thoughts?

Thanks I'll have a look at it tonight and post the results. Hopefully I'll have some good news (well for me at least) to post!!

Hi,
Well after much reading of many posts, I 'tweaked' the process model to make it run under a System Account but unfortunatley this does not work either. It does not fall over with Cannot create ActiveX object, it just 'seems' to hang on this line of code. When I have a look at the task bar on the server I see soffice.bin and soffice.exe being launched, but it's launched under Netwrrok Service.
Does anyone know if it is possible for me to physically log Network Service in and run Open Office while logged in to it? I just want to make sure this is not an issue with some sort of setup, ie like a spalsh screen asking me to agree to terms and conditions etc.
Thanks
Justin
