title: Extract data from PDF file with VB.Net
body: <p>I'm trying to pull some data from a large PDF file in VB.Net I found the following code <a href="http://www.ehow.com/how_6199098_use-_amp_-print-pdf-file.html" rel="nofollow">online</a>, but it's not helping:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Sub PrintPDF (strPDFFileName as string)
      Dim sAdobeReader as String
      'This is the full path to the Adobe Reader or Acrobat application on your computer
       sAdobeReader = "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 6.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe"
       RetVal = Shell(sAdobeReader &amp; "/P" &amp; Chr(34) &amp; sStrPDFFileName &amp; Chr(34), 0)
  End Sub
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm really lost. Any ideas?</p>
