Interop with Word XP/2002 in C#
Using Visual Studio .NET and C#, I have tried interacting with word. I've read some of the tutorials found lying around, but somehow they don't apply to my reality :|
Some of the members described in the examples doesn't apply to my references, like myWordInstance.Documents()
Can any of you give my some advice (by code or by pointing at some material), that shows how to open a word document programatically, and preferably hidden, parses through a document, and shuts down again?
By the way, i have tried using the pia's, using Add reference to the word interop dll and pointing at the WOrd 10 object library COM object... neither worked at my comp, since i couldn't interface the members...

well, managed to do it myself, but since one can't close questions, thanx for the help :)
I've had to cut out some stuff cause there was some problem submitting the comment. Anyways this is the code that i am using to generate keywords for a word document based on some rules, hope this helps you get a idea on how to do what you want to do :)
for hidden use app.Visible = false;
for parsing use doc.Words
anything else just see thru the code.

I guess that you are not using this anymore... but just for the record.
Accessing Word (or any office app) through .net is very slow. A much faster way is to use VBA. With VBA, you are able to do almost everything you can with c#.
Just my 5 cents
