Keeping a PDF on topp while working with a form

[Shas91]

Hi !

I'm trying to fill in a form based on what a PDF document is showing. As You all know the PDF document is placed behind the Access as soon as it get activated. You have to work with alt tab and switch between the two program while doing this. Its workable but very anoying.

Is there any way to solve this ?

Could you display the pdf on a Web browser control in a form?

you need an API that will make the pdf window on foreground.

I realize that you did not ask the question, but have you considered populating your form with the PDF data programatically instead of having a human transpose it?

if your mso is 32 bit, then it will work even if the code was 2005.
