Is it possible to create a new process within (limited to) a given window of a running process - like for instance, Adobe Acrobat starting up to display a .pdf within Internet Explorer? What I am hoping to do is to display files of different types from an archive within the window of a vcl control, using their varying display applications. I have tried ShellExecute with the window parameter set to the handle of an existing control but this does not seem to help. Any other suggestions, please? Or can someone suggest a simpler way of achieving the objective? Regards, David
