How do I retrieve PDF files through a database?

In the database only name is given and PDF files are stored in PDF folder.
The PDF folder is made in my .net project and shows the result in grid view.

You can get the PDF file path from the database using simple ADO.Net code. Check this[^] link for help. You will have to make some changes in the connection string and the type for the command and connection objects based on the database you are using. Still, the basic idea remains the same. Once you have got the file path, get it from the folder and show to the user.

This[^] link may help you out.

Just treat the pdf as an image or any other large file.
