Data extraction from MS Word file

Hello Everybody,

I am fairly new to ASP.Net. I have a requirement to extract data from
a number of similar word files and put it into database. Eventhough I
could do it with VB.Net, I am not able to do it with ASP.Net. In
VB.Net, I used word.applicatio n object to open the file. Then I
created ranges for appropriate sections of word file. It was not
hard.

But I need to achieve it in ASP.Net. Could anybody please help me ?
May I know whether this is possible in ASP.Net ? Can ASP.Net open a
word file server ? If yes, how can extract text from specific
portions of it ?

I will appreciate any help in this regard.

Thanks in advance

Madhu

I have data from a clinical trial, where each record has been stored on a network drive in (of all things) a MS Word document. The documents were created with a template, so the location of the data within the document should be consistent. The question is: is there a way for me to extract the data out of a document so that I can send it on to a real database?
