Default displaying pdf, .chm files within a C# application
hey guys, need your help on this one....

currently i am working on an application that indexes all the pdf files, .chm, .doc etc. files in a particular folder. then the user types in some keyword say 'asp.net' then the app must filter out documents that contain the keyword asp.net. now i want to highlight the words asp.net that appear in the documents. so i need pdf viewer components and also .chm files. hoe can i do this?

More than likely, no one has an answer for you.

You'll probably have to get some third party components to do what you need. I know there are PDF components that can modify existing documents such that you might be able to achieve the "search and highlight" goal, but I don't know about CHM files. Handling the DOC files might be achievable with an API link to MS-Word.
