>All, I would like to be able to view different document types in the unbound object control. I have a table that gives me the UNC path to the file. I have the extension of the file as a separate field in the table where the UNC path is. I have limited the query to only PDF files. In this case, there are only 2. I want to be able to preview them in the control and double click them to open them in a PDF reader. The problem is that the SourceDoc property is being changed, but not refreshed. Well, not to the point that the document is display in the object container. Below is the code I am using: Private Sub Form_Current() Me.OLEUnbound4.SourceDoc = "" Me.OLEUnbound4.SourceDoc = Me.txtFullPath Me.txtSourceDoc = Me.OLEUnbound4.SourceDoc Me.OLEUnbound4.Requery Me.Refresh Me.Repaint End Sub When I am on the first row, the value in SourceDoc is: \\sithou-sqldev\ssis_working\PhotoSamples\Data_Mart_Extracts_Rpt.pdf When I move to the second record, it is: \\sithou-sqldev\ssis_working\PhotoSamples\RT-201208-18101-49113240.pdf I am getting this from the third line of code where I get the value of SourceDoc and display it on the screen. I still see the first document in the object container and when i double-click on it, I get the first document. Any one have any ideas on how to make this work? Robert L.
