Add it into VFP's ActiveX controls list in Tools options

Then drag n drop it into the form

Then just populate the Src Property the pdf will show automatically

>>No but I have put a Word doc into a MEMO field using FileToStr(). Then use StrToFile() to recreate it with a temporary file name for VFP Ole automation. The final step of automation is to prompt the user for a filename to save the file as [along with the path]. That way the user never gets to tamper with the original doc.
