It's possible to do this, but it's fairly complex. You would need to launch a viewer with that file, take a bitmap / screenshot / snapshot of that window, and copy those contents to the clipboard, then close it down.
A pretty tall order I'd think. It might be easier with something like Foxypreviewer if you can save a report to an image, and the PDF you want to view is generated from a FoxPro report.
