Hi niahant.
Could you please provide details regarding the error you refer ?

What "error"? Can you see that it makes no sense at all.
Please see my answer.

Get rid of the semicolon (;) in your code.

What makes no sense at all? He has a windows forms application that has a compile time error.... Not sure what makes you think it's a web application.

Oops! Thank you very much; I'll remove my wrong answer...

Solution 1

VB

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

        Process.Start("D:\book.pdf";)
End Sub

Should be

VB

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

        Process.Start("D:\book.pdf")
End Sub

I voted 4, because my note "there are no cases when using hard-coded file path can be useful" is still valid :-)
And thank you again for spotting my mistake!
Cheers,
