What kind of file structure is the invoice in?

It is some table format....

on the right side Date and Invoice Number..after that table which consists of InvoiceDetails|Particulars|amount....................at last the total of Invoice ...we need to retrieve those fields...

This sounds like nothing more than a garden variety SELECT query. Where would optical character recognition come in? :confused:

I will tell u the total story..

Invoice is a tiff image we cant read it directly...so convert it to pdf format then we need to ocr that document...which consists of those invoice date...details...its not like that select query..after reading the .pdf (ocr)some feilds should be stored in one place...then we can query that one....

got it....
