AW Thanks for your response. The solution you posted is nice but not what I am looking for. Actually I am writing an utility that can extract embedded files from word document. The file could be txt zip exe or other formats. For extraction perpose I am copying the file into the clipboard but then I dont know how to programatically paste the file on clipboard to specific directory. When I manually paste file at any location it works fine. Let me know if you have any idea. Thanks Bharat

See help: Writeng Text to a File in VS help: using System; using System.IO; class Test { public static void Main() { // Create an instance of StreamWriter to write text to a file. // The using statement also closes the StreamWriter. using (StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(TestFile.txt)) { // Add some text to the file. sw.Write(something); } } }
