Hi Vinod,



I'm not sure exactly how to code this (I know there is a third-party

software component out there that does what you want), but try looking up

"OCR on-the-fly".  I think you'll find your tool.  :)



HTH,

Jason

Hi



Acrobat comes with a built-in OCR which will change your pdf files to text one. Next you can manipulate the resulting text file to
create records in SQL.



Hope this helps.
