Hi RRajasekar,

If you want to read PDF file content, you need to use Adobe component in your winform application. If you have installed Adobe PDF reader, you can find components in COM page in Visual Studio.

Microsoft hasn't tested these components and got special documents from Adobe of their usage. So you may try to contact Adobe company for help. Thank you for your understanding.

Sincerely,
Kira Qian

wbDocument.Navigate(FileName)

The following I picked up recently (I completely forgotten who I got this from to give them credit)

#Region " Required for view completion "
    ''' <summary>
    ''' This code helps to insure that the PDF document is completely released.
    ''' If these steps aren't taken the PDF file may be locked for some time or
    ''' even until this application is exited.
    ''' </summary>
    ''' <remarks></remarks>
    Private Sub DemoViewer_FormClosing() Handles Me.FormClosing
        If FileName.Length > 0 Then
            wbDocument.Hide()
            wbDocument.Navigate("about:blank")
            Do Until wbDocument.ReadyState = WebBrowserReadyState.Complete
                Application.DoEvents()
                System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(100)
            Loop
            wbDocument.Dispose()
            System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(100)
        End If
    End Sub
#End Region
