  2. Hi Sreenivasa,

    Thanks for the prompt response, I am actually looking for the Content which is pointed/Linked by the TOC..

    in TOC when we do "Ctrl+Click" on any item, it takes to the appropriate content.. i want to read that content and save that content seperately. It is like GOTO particular content. but how to do that in C#? Thanks in advance
