hello, i dispatched the 'PDF.PdfCtrl.1' object (it's the AcroReader ActiveX ctrl) but i cannot guess how i can use it. I used the makepy util but this did not help in fact i found all the methods/attibutes of the control but not the signatures: that is the number of params and the type, any suggestion? thanx bye franz _______________________________________________ ActivePython mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/listinfo/activepython
