Re: Web Front End for PDFs...
1. On a CD-ROM, provide a "shell" application, for users, along with a
database to store document references, etc.
2. Provide the documents in a compressed form for extraction to the
user's disk, where the documents are referenced from, via links,
keyword search, full text search, etc.
3. Create an IP online that the shell application talks to for keeping
records current (the way any antivirus does a "liveupdate" of its
virus databases, etc).
4. You can use VB or VC++ or any other tool to create such an
application, and use MS Access to store the databases.
5. Your documents could be html, pdf, doc or any other format you may choose.
Sanjeev, I am of the firm belief that if you were to package this
system as a configurable product, you could make a tidy sum selling it
in the tech pubs community.
