Hello,

You probably have data stored as pdf format...From what i know you can't load that data because the pdf is read-only. I've searched also the internet for a solution and i couldn't find one. You can convert it or if you are good with vbscript you could try making an algorithm that reads the data but i can't seem to find a solution for it...

Regards,

Andrei

If you want to open pdf file

then use text object -> property-> action -> add - > external -> Launch ->enter application location -> application filename.
