Open a PDF file via ASP DataGrid from a Local Disk
Reply Quote
I have an ASP app for a guy with a dial up modem.  He needs to look at 60,000 PDF documents that the OCR scanner missed picking up a transaction date.  I have posted the PDF to the server and they are also on this guys local hard drive.  He needs to be running my update page and click on the corresponding hyperlink to the PDF document.  This works great when it pulls from the server - it opens a new window and auto opens the PDF in Adobe.  Now for the life of me I can not get this application to open from the local drive - saving this guy at dial up speed 30 seconds per transaction.  Has anyone ever be able to open a PDF from the local drive - via a hyperlink in the DataGrid?

Hi Geek,

Since no-one responded regarding the DataGrid I suggest you put the PDF's in a local website on the guy's machine and refer to them through your application via http://localhost.

Cheers,

James
