>>I'm using the myControl.navigate("C:\MyFile.tif") method to attempt to view a document. However, VFP seems to be using Picture Viewer instead, i.e. opening the tif file outside of the VFP window/myControl. It works fine for .jpg, that is displayed within myControl, but not tifs.

>>The same issue applies to Word and Excel too, they're both opened externally by VFP and not withing myControl.

>>Any ideas?
