Hello Appeon team
context: PowerBuilder 2019R3 Professional, build #2670
OS: Windows 10; Windows Server 2016
In the application, we have a module allowing to associate to (ex.) products different files, images, html, documents
We decided to use the new PB WebBrowser control, being faster than MS Web browser ole
Appeon documentation indicates that WebBrowser supports browsing local files "(including htm, gif, jpg, jpeg, png, swf, txt, c, cpp, pdf, etc.) ".
There is no problem to browse a txt or pdf document but browsing Excel an/or Word does not work.
The Navigate function returns 1 (success) there is no error raised and progressIndex from NavigationProgressIndex event is 100. Nevertheless these types of file are not shown in the control.
The question is: does the PB WebBrowser control support to browse xlsx, docx files?
thank you,
Lucia Radita
