Hi everyone,

I haven't touch in vb6 in 12 years so im very rusty... :s

But now i need a little exe that allow to open and view office and pdf files, i dont need it to save or allow changes.

Since its going to work with a batch file it doesnt even need a file explorer, just the window with the ability to drag file to window and it opens the file.

Can anyone give me some help?

thanks

Try libreOffice. Reads, writes pdf.

but i need a files viewer without save or print that is portable and allow me to call it with a batch file

There are so many! My smartphone and tablet seem to do pdf in every app. My LINUX Software Center has many. Try tucows or just Google.

A free (and relatively lightweight) PDF reader is available from Foxit

My two cents is to skip VB6 and get the latest version of vb.net that is compatible with your system.
