Hi

I want to write a VB6 application that would get all the text buffers from a
pdf file.
{without buying a 3rd party control}

Can anyone help ?

I don't know if there's a better option, but I've
used XPDF. It's open source, with C++ code available.
I use it in combination with a small VB program
such that I can put an item on my context menu
for PDFs, which calls my VB applet, which calls
XPDF, which outputs a TXT file so that I don't have
to wrestle with reading PDF format. It works pretty
well but the text is not perfect. It often has a bit
of junk text in it.
