This is not a question. What have you done so far? What's the problem? Do you realize that presenting doc or pdf text in a text box would be a loss of information such as formatting?

This must be a homework question. I have seen this asked multiple times this week.

Follow the following steps..
1) Fetch the file from database.
2) Store it in special folder.
3) Read the required / whole line using file IO in FileStream object and
show it in textbox..

If you will get any problem regarding coding just contact me...

All the best.. Accept the answer if you like my answer.. :)

Solution 3

If you're retrieving a Word .DOC file of Adobe Reader .PDF, you can NOT display the context in a TextBox. The TextBox has no idea what a .DOC or .PDF is and has no idea how to render the content.
