Try using 'web.show_document' to show your 'pdf' document. (Also search 'show pdf'.)

To store a 'pdf' in the 'database, search this forum for 'store pdf'. See http://www.orafaq.com/forum/m/426585/67467/?srch=store+pdf#msg_426585 as an example.

I have solve my Problem by the following way:

If    WEBUTIL_FILE_TRANSFER.DB_To_Client ( clientFile       => 'C:\Test.pdf' , 
                                           tableName        => 'Table_Name'  , 
                                           columnName       => 'Blob_Column' ,
                                           whereClause      => 'Where_Clause'
                                          ) 
      then  WEBUTIL_HOST.Host('IEXPLORE.EXE '||'C:\Test.pdf');                   

End If;

Have u any alternate idea...

Regards
Tamzidul Amin.

You could use 'webutil' to find the 'temporary' disk location and copy your files to that location instead of 'c:'.

You may also want to delete the file once the user has finished looking at it.

Google for "Oracle® Forms Developer, WebUtil User's Guide, Release 1.0.6" and in it go to section '4.2 Ported D2KWUTIL Functions' and look at 'Get_Temp_Directory'.

To delete a file go to section '4.3.3 WebUtil_File' and look at 'Delete_File'. You can also use 'client_host' to issue an OS 'delete'.
