You can do Process.Start(nameOfPdfFile); and acrobatreader will open your PDF.

Urgent enough?

Please stop posting non-answers as "solution". It can give you abuse reports which eventually may lead to cancellation of your CodeProject membership.
Comment on any posts, reply to available comments, or use "Improve question" (above).
Also, keep in mind that members only get notifications on the post sent in reply to there posts.

And do yourself a big favor: stop saying "it's urgent", stop saying "give me code". This will get you nowhere. It's not urgent for anyone, and giving you code won't help you. You need understanding and skills, not having your work done by someone else. You are only getting downvoted and abuse reports.

Thank you for understanding.

Do you want to use your pdf file as help file for your project on client machine after installation of your project.

For using a pdf file as a help on client system please use following steps:

First add your pdf file to your setup. You can use any special folder like "ApplicationData" for this purpose.

Then add following lines code on the button of your form to open that file on client machine.

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    string PathOnclientMachine =  Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData).ToString();

try
{
    string helppath = PathOnclientMachine + "\\Help manual.pdf"; 
    Help.ShowHelp(this, helppath);
}
catch
{
    MessageBox.Show("Help file has been corrupted";, "Warning",     MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information);
}
}

Hope this will help you.
