Android Question Opening up a PDF

[Mr Sparkle]

Can someone please help me. I have tried different variations on the code and can't seem to get it to work. I am trying to send a locally saved PDF document to an installed reader (polaris and/or adobe) on my device. Each time it says "an error occurred while opening the document".

Dim FileName As String = "1.pdf"
       
Msgbox ( File.Exists (File.DirInternal, FileName),"")
       
Dim Intent1 As Intent
Intent1.Initialize(Intent1.ACTION_VIEW, "file://" & File.Combine(File.DirInternal , FileName))
Intent1.SetComponent("android/com.android.internal.app.ResolverActivity")
Intent1.SetType("application/pdf")
Intent1.WrapAsIntentChooser ("Choose Viewer")
StartActivity(Intent1)

The msgbox gives a result of TRUE so I know the file exists as well the PDF file is not corrupted.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You will have to save/copy the PDF in DirDefaultExternal, DirInternal is only accessible by your app.
