How to know when the pdf file is ready?

2009-03-03 14:09:17 by bulckie

I have a progress program that is using this tool to convert excel files to pdf. After converting, I need to email the pdf file to our customers.

Now I have a problem to know when the pdf file is ready to send.
Now I'm checking my PDF - directory to see if my pdf file is there. If I find it, I send it to the customer.
But the problem now is that the PDFCreator is still busy converting the file, while my program is already sending the file to the customer.

So the problem is that my progress program is seeing the pdf file to early.

Is there a solution for this ??

How do you do it? Do you use the com interface? Have you checked the com samples?
