Question

Marina Eberhardt · Answer

If you just want to open MS Word application then you can do this: System.Diagnostics. Process .Start( @Winword.exe ); If you want to have an actual editor in your applications then see this: https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/Word-Document-Editor-in-d97fd70b The sample uses this word processing library for .NET . You can check here various C# manipulations on DOCX documents that can be achieved with it.

There are three main ways to work with Word documents in c#: 1) Use Office Interop: http://www.mindstick.com/Articles/5cd1b721-9b94-4ea0-bd6e-2bb157401069/ http://zirmandli.wordpress.com/2007/07/04/read-word-doc-using-c/ http://www.4microsoftsolutions.com/post/Create-Open-Microsoft-Word-Document-in-C.aspx http://nishantrana.wordpress.com/2007/11/03/creating-word-document-using-c/ 2) If you work with .docx format only you may use OpenXML: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5124 http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/Blogs/9051/ http://somecodesnippets.blogspot.ru/2012/05/how-to-create-word-document-with-c.html 3) You may use some 3rd party .Net components.

Path .GetFullPath( @..\word to image.doc ); DialogResult result = dialog.ShowDialog(); if (result== DialogResult .OK) { try { // Load doc document from file. this .docDocumentViewer1.LoadFromFile(dialog.FileName); this .textBox2.Text = this .docDocumentViewer1.PageCount.ToString(); } catch ( Exception ex) { MessageBox .Show(ex.Message Error  MessageBoxButtons .OK MessageBoxIcon .Error); } } } Normal 0 false false false EN-US ZH-CN X-NONE /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable{mso-style-name:Table Normal;mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0;mso-tstyle-colband-size:0;mso-style-noshow:yes;mso-style-priority:99;mso-style-parent:;mso-padding-alt:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;mso-para-margin:0cm;mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt;mso-pagination:widow-orphan;font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Times New Romanserif;} but you need to download a .
